The moon must know it's fridayhe's been drinking all night

Crooning and swooning

He says come dance in the half-light

So you whirl out a stepchoreographed by wine

And you dance with the moonthe starsand the stop sign



(chorus)



In my mindI see a lifetime of tonights

But I'll keep that thought sealed tight

Live for the moment that is tonight

There's no rain in the guttersthe moon's fully bright

Let it shine all it's power

I may not get another friday night...



You whirl and a child-like wisdom glows on your face

The moon you have embraced you left him spell-boundstaggeredin his starrystarry place

Roundroundroundhe's spinning round youround you

Dancingtwirlingin a wild lunar chase



Though the moon's all but eclipsed tonight

By curtains and candlelight he's tapping at me through the window pane

In his top hat and cane...
