The most literal meaning of blue moon is when the moon (not necessarily a full moon) appears to a casual observer to be unusually bluish, which is a rare event. The effect can be caused by smoke or dust particles in the atmosphere, as has happened after forest fires in Sweden and Canada in 1950 and, notably, after the eruption of Krakatoa in 1883, which caused the moon to appear blue for nearly two years. The particles in the atmosphere have to be about one micrometre in diameter; under these circumstances, long-wavelength light, which appears red to a viewer, is scattered out of the line of sight and short-wavelength light, which appears blue to a viewer, is selectively transmitted into a viewer's eyes

if there are enough dust particles it will be!

once in a blue moon it actually turns slightly blue

edit: oop...thats what you quoted, i see your quote now

...some say there's a man in the moon, but it's actually a woman.

Blue Moon, you saw me standing alone,

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 could care for,

And then there suddenly appeared before me,

Someone my arms could really hold,

I heard you whisper "Darling please adore me,"

And when I looked to the moon it had turned to gold,

Blue moon, now I'm no longer alone,

Without a dream in my heart,

Without a love of my own.

And then there suddenly appeared before me

The only one my arms will ever hold

heard somebody whisper please adore me

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

Blue moon

Now I'm no longer alone

Without a dream in my heart

Without a love of my own

a beer is not a cocktail.
