Quotes

[edit]

"Blue Moon" (1934)

[edit]
  • Blue Moon,
    You saw me standing alone,
    Without a dream in my heart,
    Without a love of my own.
  • Blue Moon,
    You knew just what I was there for,
    You heard me saying a prayer for,
    Someone I really could care for.
  • Blue Moon,
    Now I'm no longer alone,
    Without a dream in my heart,
    Without a love of my own.
  • Bless our Mountain Greenery home!
    In a mountain greenery
    Where God paints the scenery
    Just two crazy people together
  • She gets too hungry for dinner at eight...
    She likes a crap game, but never come late...
    She'd never bother with people she hates...
    That's why the lady is a tramp.

Bewitched (1940)

[edit]
  • I'm wild again, beguiled again
    A simpering, whimpering child again;
    Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I.

    Couldn't sleep and wouldn't sleep
    When love came and told me, I shouldn't sleep;
    Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I.
    I'm wild again! Beguiled again!
    A simpering, whimpering child again,
    Bewitched, bothered and bewildered am I.

Have You Met Miss Jones?

[edit]
  • And all at once I lost my breath
    And all at once was scared to death
    For all at once I owned the earth and sky.
    Now I've met Miss Jones
    We'll keep on meeting till we die,
    Yes, Miss Jones and I.
