Moonlight, fade away tonight

Moonlight, fade away tonight

I don’t feel much like dancing

Some man’s gone, he’s tried to run my life

Don’t know what he’s asking

He tells me I’d better get in line

Can’t hear what he’s saying

When I grow up, I’m gonna make it mine

But these aren’t dues I’ve been paying

How much does it cost, I’ll buy it

The time is all we’ve lost, I’ll try it

But he can’t even run his own life

I’ll be damned if he’ll run mine, Moonlight

Moonlight, fade away tonight

I don’t feel much like dancing

Some man’s gone, he’s tried to run my life

Don’t know what he’s asking

Working starts to make me wonder where

The fruits of what I do are going

He says in love and war all is fair

But he’s got cards he ain’t showing

How much does it cost, I’ll buy it

The time is all we’ve lost, I’ll try it

And he can’t even run his own life

I’ll be damned if he’ll run mine, Moonlight

Shadows crawl across the walls tonight

Whispers keep on chasing

I’ll light my path, I won’t give up the fight

No one’s ever breaking

The dreams I hold, they’re mine to keep

Through darkness and the danger

I’ll climb the heights while others sleep

And face the night, a lone arranger

How much does it cost, I’ll buy it

The time is all we’ve lost, I’ll try it

And he can’t even run his own life

I’ll be damned if he’ll run mine, Moonlight

Moonlight, come on back another day

I promise you I’ll be singing

This old world, she’s gonna turn around

Brand new bells’ll be ringing

Moonlight, come on back another day

I promise you I’ll be singing

This old world, she’s gonna turn around

Brand new bells’ll be ringing

This old world, she’s gonna turn around

Brand new bells’ll be ringing
