Monroe sang with some of the "Big Bands" of the '40s era, but his music transcended that style to become a popular radio and television personality - like Perry Como, Dean Martin, etc.
Blue Moon
Vaughn Monroe Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
And then there suddenly appeared before me
The only one my arms will ever hold
And when I looked, the moon had turned to gold!
Blue moon!
Now I'm no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own

The moon turns to gold and the singer is no longer alone, finally fulfilling his heart's deepest desires.
The lyrics of "Blue Moon" are written in a poetic and romantic way, expressing loneliness and longing for love. The song is full of imagery that emphasizes the singer's feeling of emptiness and how the moon represents his hope that he will be able to find love. The appearance of the moon is magical and brings hope, which is symbolized by the transformation from blue to gold.

Saw a mediocre Mickey Rooney film "Sound Off" way back in the 1950s. Loved the marching song and bought an HMV 78 rpm recording and the rest is history. Now aged 87, I am still a dcevoted fan and have an extensive collection of his recorded material. Odd how one song can result in a lifetime of admiration, but, there it is. Here in England, whilst not an avid radio listener, I have not heard a Vaughn Monroe recording played for probably over sixty years. Oh Well. Don't worry Vaughn. You still have me, until I join you. February, 2024.
