Gerry Rafferty - Moonlight and Gold lyrics

rate me

Moonlight and gold

Midsummer magic when the night turns to day

And songbirds greet the dawn

You lie awake

You watch and wonder while the moon fades away

And one more day is born.

Tides keep on turning, while hearts keep on yearning

To be where they know they belong

All on a new day, you see in a new way

The things you've been leaning upon.

Moonlight and gold

I will awaken to a love that runs deeper

Than the need in me.

While you are sleeping, the new day comes creeping

And life keeps on passing you by

Magic unfolds when the blue meets the gold

And the sun comes to open your eyes.

Moonlight and gold

Midsummer magic when the night turns to day

And songbirds greet the dawn

You lie awake

You watch and wonder while the moon fades away

And one more day is born.

Oh yeah
