Lyrics

Moonlight

[Verse 1]

In the moonlight

When the shadows play

When the thought of what could happen

Takes your breath away

Sighs and whispers

Quiet laughter in the air

Unspoken invitations

Everywhere

[Verse 2]

In the moonlight

All the words you say

Make it relatively easy

To be swept away

In the half light

Can we trust the way we feel?

Can we be sure that anything

Is real?

[Bridge]

Stars keep secrets as they wander in discretely

While the echoes of a song go drifting by

We must be careful not to lose our way completely

Or the magic that we see here

We can't be sure will be here

[Verse 3]

In the morning

With the moon away

And if in each other's arms

Is where we're meant to stay

In the love light

When our eyes have grown accustomed to the daylight

We'll see what waits for us to share

For all the things we've dreamed of in the moonlight

Will be there

[Piano Solo]

[Bridge]

Stars keep secrets as they wander in discretely

While the echoes of a song go drifting by

We must be careful not to lose our way completely

Or the magic that we see here

We can't be sure will be here

[Verse 3]

In the morning

With the moon away

And if in each other's arms

Is where we're meant to stay

In the love light

When our eyes have grown accustomed to the daylight

We'll see what waits for us to share

For all the things we've dreamed of in the moonlight

Will be there

[Outro]

In the moonlight

In the moonlight
