Dancing in the Moonlight (It's Caught Me in Its Spotlight) [BBC Session 01/08/1977]

[Verse 1]

When I passed you in the doorway

Well, you took me with a glance

I should've took that last bus home

But I asked you for a dance

Now we go steady to the pictures

I always get chocolate stains on my pants

And my father, he's goin' crazy

He says I'm livin' in a trance

[Chorus]

But I'm dancin' in the moonlight

It's caught me in its spotlight (It's alright, alright)

Dancin' in the moonlight

On this long, hot summer night

[Verse 2]

It's 3 o'clock in the mornin'

And I'm on the streets again

I disobeyed another warnin'

I should've been in by  10

Now I won't get out until Sunday

I'll have to say I stayed with friends

Oh, but it's a habit worth formin'

If it means to justify the ends

[Chorus]

Dancin' in the moonlight

It's caught me in its spotlight (It's alright, alright)

Dancin' in the moonlight

On this long, hot summer night

[Bridge]

And I'm walkin' home

My last bus has long gonе

But I'm dancin' in the moonlight

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

Dancin' in the moonlight

It's caught me in its spotlight (It's alright, alright)

Dancin' in thе moonlight

On this long, hot summer night

Dancin' in the moonlight (I'm dancin' in the moonlight)

It's caught me in its spotlight (It's caught me in its spotlight)

Dancin' in the moonlight (Dancin' in the moonlight)

On this long, hot summer night (It's got me hot)

Dancin' in the moonlight (I'm dancin' in the moonlight)

It's caught me in its spotlight

It's caught me alright, alright, alright, alright

(It's alright, alright)

Dancin' in the moonlight

On this long, hot summer night (It's so goddamn hot)

Dancin' in the moonlight (I'm dancin')

It's caught me in its spotlight (I'm still dancin')

Dancin' in the moonlight
