Billie Holiday & Her Orchestra — The Moon Looks Down and Laughs lyrics

Lyrics

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
