When I passed you in the doorway
You took me with a glance
Should have took that last bus home
But I asked you for a dance

Now we were steady to the pictures
I always get chocolate stains on my pants
Father says he´s going crazy
Says I´m livin´ in a trance

Dancing in the moonlight
It´s caught me in it´s spotlight
It´s alright, it´s alright, the moonlight
This long, hot summer night

It´s three o´clock in the morning, I´m on the streets again
Disobeyed another warning, shoulda been home by ten
Now I stay out ´till Sunday, I have to say I stayed with friends
It´s a habit worth forming, It´s a means to justify the end

Dancing in the moonlight
It´s caught me in it´s spotlight
It´s alright, it´s alright, the moonlight
This long, hot summer night

I´m walking home
Last bus is long gone
