Moondance
Music and lyrics by Van Morrison; revisions by Debra Milligan
It’s a marvelous night
for a moondance
with the stars
up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night
to make romance
‘neath the cover
of October skies.
All the leaves on the
trees
are falling
to the sound of the breezes
that blow
And I’m trying to please
to the calling
of your heart-strings that play
soft and low.
All the night’s magic
seems to whisper
and hush
All the soft moonlight
seems to shine
in your blush
Can I just have one more
moondance
with you,
my love?
Can I just make some more
romance
with you,
my love?
I want to make love to you
tonight
I can’t wait till
the morning has come.
I know the time is just right
and straight into my arms
you will run.
When you come
my heart will be waiting
to make sure that
you’re never alone.
There and then
all my dreams will
come true,
dear
There and then
I will make you
my own.
Every time I touch you,
you tremble inside
I know
how much you want me
It’s a fact
you can’t hide.
Can I just have
one more moondance
with you,
my love?
Can I just make some more
romance with you,
my love?
It’s a marvelous night
for a moondance
with the stars
up above
in your eyes
A fantabulous night
to make romance
‘neath the cover
of October skies.
All the leaves on the trees
are falling
to the sound of the
breezes that blow
I’m trying to please to the calling
of your heartstrings
that play
soft and low.
The night’s magic
wants to whisper and hush
while
the soft moonlight
shines in my blush.
Can I just have one more moondance
with you, my love?
Can I make some more romance
with you, my love
in the moonlight
on a magic night
of love.
