When tempting eyes across the road

Said to me I'd love to be with you

I'm not tempted for a moment

I just think about my woman

The baby calls me on the phone

Telling me I need to hurrily home

Well the hurrying is easy

Because she's waiting up

With all the love I need



I prefer the moonlight

The one right little lady by my side

That's what I like

I prefer a late drive down the turn park

With the moonlight shining so brightly

Got her by my side

That's what I'd like

I prefer the moonlight



I prefer playing quiet song

She's a mother love her daughter

Moonlight dances on the water

The moon is full and so am I

I look at her and feel like I could cry

But my tears contain no sorrow

Because I know

She'll wake up by my side tomorrow



Morning, noon and night

When the feeling comes so right

Somewhere in some sky

Where the moon is surely shining bright
