BILLIE HOLIDAY - THE MOON LOOKS DOWN AND LAUGHS lyrics

Bert Kalmar / Sid Silvers / Harry Ruby

The moon looks down and laughs

And says, "I told you so"

Why did I let you go away

I was so sure you loved me madly

And when I wanted you

You'd gladly come back to me

I never realised the day we said goodbye

How very sorry I would be

And every night when I walk

Up and down this lonesome town

The moon looks down and laughs at me
