[Verse 1]
It was just us two on that gravel road
Radio low and the night feelin’ cold
I took your hand, you didn’t say a thing
Just smiled like summer, made my heart sing
The stars came down like they knew our names
And the world got quiet when you said my name
You leaned in close, whispered, “Just this once”
We danced in the dust to a steel guitar strum
⸻
[Chorus]
Barefoot in the moonlight, swayin’ slow
To a love song only country hearts know
No big crowd, just the wind and trees
Your head on my shoulder, your arms ’round me
If I could stop time, I swear I might
Just to hold you forever in that pale blue light
Barefoot in the moonlight… dancin’ like it’s our last night
⸻
[Verse 2]
Your hair was a halo, floatin’ so free
Every step in time felt like eternity
No plans, no rings, not a single vow
But I knew right then I was yours somehow
The crickets sang as the night rolled on
You hummed along to that Conway song
No high heels, no fancy dress
Just a backroad dance and a simple yes
⸻
[Chorus – Repeat with harmony]
Barefoot in the moonlight, swayin’ slow
To a love song only country hearts know
No big crowd, just the wind and trees
Your head on my shoulder, your arms ’round me
If I could stop time, I swear I might
Just to hold you forever in that pale blue light
Barefoot in the moonlight… dancin’ like it’s our last night
⸻
[Bridge – soft steel guitar solo + whispered line]
“Don’t need a ballroom, babe… just your two feet and mine.”
⸻
[Final Chorus – softer, intimate delivery]
Barefoot in the moonlight, hearts in sync
No words spoken, just time to think
Of a life we could build, one dance at a time
With a love that don’t fade and a rhythm that shines
Barefoot in the moonlight… just you and I…
Forever in that slow dance sky
