The needle showed the gas was low and three dollars in my pocket
Her beauty got the best of me and she didn't try to stop it
On a dead end road nobody knows a thing about but me
We parked that old Ford pickup truck under that cypress tree
Turning midnight
Burnin' moonlight

Yeah, I was off and running, my fingers through her hair
You could cut the passion with a knife in that southern midnight air
I kissed her sweet on that pickup seat as my blue jeans hit the floor
Her body heat and my cold bare feet pressed up against the door
Turning midnight
Burnin' moonlight

Oh, I still feel the same about you
I can't spend the night without you
You still move me
Turning midnight
Burnin' moonlight

It happened fast just like that, it didn't take us long
Like smoke rings off my cigarette, our innocence was gone
And I wanted to say something but I buttoned up instead
She sat there and brushed her hair and a smile was all she said
Turning midnight
Burnin' moonlight

Girl, I still feel the same about you
I can't spend the night without you
You still move me
Turning midnight
Burnin' moonlight
Burnin' moonlight...
