Lyric

[Verse 1]

We left the porch light low

And slipped past Mrs. Cole

Your hand found mine by the gate

As the crickets took their role

The bakery window glowed

On Maple and Third Street

You smiled at the empty swing

And tapped your shoes to the beat

[Pre-Chorus]

The sky turned velvet blue

Your hum came drifting through

I kept my steps real slow

Just to stay close to you

[Chorus]

Under the moonlight

We go, we go

Under the moonlight

So soft and slow

You hum, I follow

Back to your door

Under the moonlight

I want one more

(Under the moonlight)

(So soft and slow)

[Verse 2]

The diner sign went dark

But the jukebox song stayed on

You whistled through the hush

Till the whole old street was gone

A dog barked once, then peace

The river held its shine

Your laugh was small and warm

Like a glass of Sunday wine

[Pre-Chorus]

The night knew where we’d be

No need for anything

Just your breath beside my cheek

And that easy swing you bring

[Chorus]

Under the moonlight

We go, we go

Under the moonlight

So soft and slow

You hum, I follow

Back to your door

Under the moonlight

I want one more

(Under the moonlight)

(So soft and slow)

[Bridge]

If morning asks me why

I lingered at your side

I’ll say the moon was kind

And you were my best guide

No rush, no grand parade

Just your shoulder and my song

A little while with you

And the whole night felt long

[Final Chorus]

Under the moonlight

We go, we go

Under the moonlight

So soft and slow

You hum, I follow

Back to your door

Under the moonlight

I want one more

Under the moonlight

Stay with me now

Under the moonlight

Till the last blue cloud

You hum, I follow

Home through the glow

Under the moonlight

Don’t let me go
