There it is again, tempting refrain
Whispering, wooing me, soothing me, singing my name
Here I go again, moth to a flame
Pushing me, pulling me, lulling me into these chains

It's charming, enchanting, a mystical sight
There on the surface, it all feels alright
But at the end of the day it's just borrowed light
There's a dark side to the moonshine

Love at first sight, easy on the eyes
Appealing but slowly revealing the truth where it lies
Making believe like it's the one
It shimmers and shines and it's trying but it's not the sun

It's charming, enchanting, a mystical sight
There on the surface it all feels alright
But at the end of the day it's just borrowed light
There's a dark side to the moonshine

It's charming, enchanting, a mystical sight
There on the surface it all feels alright
But at the end of the day it's just borrowed light
There's a dark side to the moonshine
