Thin Lizzy - Dancing In The Moonlight lyrics

When I passed you in the doorway

You took me with a glance

I should have took that last bus home

But I asked you for a dance

Now we go steady to the pictures

I always get chocolate stains on my pants

My father he's going crazy

He say's I'm living in a trance

But I'm dancing in the moonlight

It's caught me in its spotlight

It's alright, alright

Dancing in the moonlight

On the long hot summer night

It's three o'clock in the morning

And I'm on the streets again

I disobeyed another warning

I should have been in by ten

Now I won't get out until Sunday

I'll have to say I stayed with friends

But it's a habit worth forming

If it means to justify the end

Dancing in the moonlight

It's caught me in its spotlight

It's alright, alright

Dancing in the moonlight

On the long hot summer night

And I'm walking home

The last bus has long gone

But I'm dancing in the moonlight

Dancing in the moonlight

It's caught me in its spotlight

(It's alright, alright)

Dancing in the moonlight

On this long, hot summer night

Dancing in the moonlight (I'm dancing in the moonlight)

It's caught me in its spotlight (it's caught me in in it's spotlight)

Dancing in the moonlight (dancing in the moonlight)

On this long, hot summer night (it's got me hot)

Dancing in the moonlight (I'm dancing in the moonlight)

It's caught me in its spotlight (it's caught me alright) (it's alright, alright)

Dancing in the moonlight (alright, alright, alright, alright)

On this long, hot summer night (got so goddamn hot)

Dancing in the moonlight (I'm dancing)

It's caught me in its spotlight (I'm still dancing)

Dancing in the moonlight (I'm dancing in the moonlight)

On this long, hot summer night
