Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Verse 3] 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 [Outro] 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
