The Moon Got in My Eyes

The Moon Got in My Eyes - Mildred Bailey

Out of the darkness you suddenly appeared

You smiled I was taken by surprise

I guess I should have seen right through you

But the moon got in my eyes

I was so thrilled by the love you volunteered

I gave my heart without a compromise

I guess you don't remember do you

When the moon got in my eyes

I thought a kingdom was in sight

I would have the right to claim

But with the morning's early light

I didn't have a dream to my name

You know the saying 'All who love are blind'

It seems that ancient adage still applies

I guess I should have seen right through you

But the moon got in my eyes

I thought a kingdom was in sight

I would have the right to claim

But with the morning's early light

I didn't have a dream to my name

You know the saying 'All who love are blind'

It seems that ancient adage still applies

I guess I should have seen right through you

But the moon got in my eyes
