dancing in the moonlight it s caught me in its spotlight

Thin Lizzy

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
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 this 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

And I m walkin home
The last bus is long gone,
And I m dancing in the moonlight
