When I passed you in the doorway, you took me with a glance
I should have took that last bus home but I ask you for a dance
Now we go steady to the pictures
I always get chocolate stains on my pants
My father's going crazy says I leaving in a trance

But I'm dancing in the moonlight
It's caught me in its spotlight
It's all right I'm dancing in the moonlight
On this long hot summer night

Well it's 3 o clock in the morning
And I'm on the streets again
Disobeyed another warning
I should have been in by ten (?)

I won't get out till Sunday
I'll have to say I stayed with friends
But it's a habit worth forming
If it means to justify the ends

But I'm dancing in the moonlight
It's caught me in its spotlight
It's all right I'm dancing in the moonlight
On this long hot summer night
