Lyrics
Stay out of the moonlight, cause it can really break your heart. Look out for those sweet nights, for they can be the very start - of the end of it all -I always thought the moon was fair. Stay out of the moonlight - it plays you like an old song. You think it's familiar it's been playing you all along - in a game old as time - I used to think the moon was fair.
Love can leave you high as a kite on a balmy summer day. It can make you giddy and wild - like a child going out to play, oh well -
Stay out of the moonlight - there ought to be a sign out there. Come out at your own risk, all fools in love should be aware.
I was one of the foolish one's, I thought I knew the score - but here I am alone once more - alone - once more
