black blueberry moon

turn off the light, baby
keep your eyes shut
and commit yourself to the dark

lay down your head, baby
isn’t it odd that
a bed can become an ark?

slip away now, baby
let yourself go
and let yourself drown in a dream

take a deep breath, baby
let yourself flow
down with the summer night’s stream

uh uh
black and blue
blue and black
is the night

uh uh
black and blue
let the moon be your nocturnal guide
the black blueberry moon

tuck yourself in, gal
the blanket is warm
and i cover you up with a song

tuck yourself in, gal
the blanket is warm
and the day the day is done

and when you by chance
see a little blue star
hidden by cloud number nine

drop by for a minute
and kiss me goodnight
the star is probably mine
