Perry Como - Black Moonlight Lyrics
Lost in the shuffle, Ive drifted an strayedBruised by the city, bewildered, betrayedWith a heart heavy laden with faltering stridesI have come to the bridge, to the line that divides!What am I doing up here in a dazeAs I gaze at the cold river bed?Why do I ask myself, shall I go backWhen I seem to be going ahead?To black moonlight!Where everything reflects your colourDarkness that is endless.Nights that leave me friendless . . . blue!Black moonlight!You make the lights of harlem dullerJust like me youre faded, jaded and degraded . . . too!Why must you send . . .Ebony moonbeams, depressing, distressing . . .Like shadows of love that are gone?Where will it end?Will it spread on to the starlight, the sunlightAnd darken each promise of dawn?Black moonlight!Ive lost all power to resist youMadly, I await you, even though I hate youBlack, black moonlight!
