About This Track

'Moonlight' by Foals is an alternative song from the album 'Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost Part I' (2019). The lyrics are steeped in motion and recurrence, with a narrator moving through a desert and towards dawn, while a second figure arrives on a black horse. There is a sense of return and revision, as if the past can be walked back into, then reworked. The dialogue-like instruction, “Be lightweight,” lends the track a sparring edge, a push to travel light through what has already been said and done.

"Moonlight" is a track by Foals, from the album Everything Not Saved Will Be Lost Part I, released 8th March 2019. The track is 2:39 long. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 20 articles about Foals.

Lyrics

Moonlight

I walked into the desert
I walked out of the past

You were riding on a black horse
To sing songs at the table again
I walked into the desert

I walked into the dawn
You came to me on a black horse
To remind me of all I've said and done

"Be lightweight,"
When I roam
"Be lightweight,"
When I roam
"Be lightweight,"
When I roam
"Be lightweight,"
When I roam
