The Moon Looks Down and Laughs
Billie Holiday & Her Orchestra

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 realized 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

Lyrics by Billie Holiday & Her Orchestra

  A Sailboat In the Moonlight   A Fine Romance   A Foggy Day   A Sailboat in the Moonlight   All of Me   All or Nothing at All   Am I Blue?   Autumn in New York   Back in Your Own Back Yard   Back in Your Own Backyard   Big Stuff   Blue Moon   Body and Soul   Born to Love   But Not for Me   Did I Remember?   Did I Remember? [From Celebrity]   East of the Sun   Easy to Love   Embraceable You   Everything I Have Is Yours   Falling in Love Again   Fine and Mellow   Forget If You Can   Georgia on My Mind   Getting Some Fun Out of Life   Ghost of Yesterday   I Cover the Waterfront   I Gotta Right to Sing the Blues   I Hear Music   I Hear Music   I Let a Song Go Out of My Heart   I Only Have Eyes for You   I Wish I Had You   I Wish I Had You   I Wished on the Moon   If My Heart Could Only Talk   If the Moon Turns Green   Laughing at Life   Laughing at Life   Long Gone Blues   Love for Sale   Love Is Here to Stay   Love Me or Leave Me   Me, Myself and I   Me, Myself and I [Master Take]   Moonglow   More Than You Know   My Man   Nice Work If You Can Get It   Night and Day   No Regrets   No Regrets [Take 1]   No Regrets [Take 2]   Now They Call It Swing   On the Sentimental Side   One Never Knows, Does One?   One, Two, Button Your Shoe   Please Keep Me in Your Dreams   Practice Makes Perfect   Practice Makes Perfect   Practice Makes Perfect   Remember   Romance in the Dark   Says My Heart   Says My Heart   Some Other Spring   Stormy Weather   Strange Fruit   Summertime (From Porgy And Bess)   Sun Showers   Tenderly   The Man I Love   The Man I Love (Lady Be Good)   The Very Thought of You   Them There Eyes   These Foolish Things   Time on My Hands   Too Marvelous for Words   Under a Blue Jungle Moon   Where Is the Sun?   Wherever You Are   Who Wants Love?   Why Did I Always Depend on You?   Without Your Love   Without Your Love [Master Take]   Yesterdays   You Go to My Head
