The moon stood stillOn blueberry hillIt lingered untilMy dreams came true
The wind in the willow playedLove's sweet melodyBut all of those vows you madeWere never to be
Though we're apartYou thought of me stillFor you were my thrillOn blueberry hill
The wind in the willow playedLove's sweet melodyBut all of those vows you madeWeren't only to be
Though we're apartYou thought of me stillFor you were my thrillOn blueberry hill.

*Dave Bartholomew interview quote regarding 'Blueberry Hill';'.. '. We couldn't remember the bridge in the middle of the song.Fats' brother-in-law, Harrison, an old time musician was ourBus driver as well as his manager. He gave us the words butWe didn't get the right chord system in the bridge. Fats couldHardly get through it so Bunny took a scissor to the tape and put it together. It's a common practice now but that was a long time ago.
