Do you ever feel like, gettin high?

Do you ever feel like, leavin this world?

Uhh - do you ever feel like, you ball by yourself?

Do you ever feel unnecessary?  Uh-huh



[Heavy D: singing]

Don't call me crazy but sometimes I feel like gettin up

and dancin in the middle of the night

I need a way to release myself

from all the pain and the pressures in life (one time)

Considered drinkin, but then I started thinkin

I'd probably drown away my life

Gotta do somethin, too many people frontin

You see I need a way to get by



[Chorus: x2]

That's why I get hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh

from dancin in the middle of the night

Dancin in the moonlight



[Heavy D: singing]

Last night I'm cruisin the Meadows, better known as the ghetto

Seen a shorty named Black

At 13 he's deep in the drug scene

And there probably ain't no turnin back

He said dat, momma was smokin, he tired of bein broke and

poppa locked up and ain't comin back

I almost cried when he looked in my eyes

and he said he didn't care if he died



[Chorus]



[Heavy D: singing]

I've been dreamin for years, cried a river of tears

I can't take it no more

I seen the bible dying

And I don't wanan cry no more (just ain't right)

Too many people pushin too many people

Hate is just a sequel, cause still nobody's equal

And I find myself lying

Cause I don't wanna cry no more



[Chorus]



[Heavy D: singing]

Dancin in the moonlight

Said dancin in the moonlight [x7]



[Chorus]



[Heavy D: singing]

Dancin in the moonlight

Said dancin in the moonlight [repeat to fade]
