When temptin' eyes 'cross the room
Said to me I'd love to be with you
I'm not tempted for a moment
I just think about my woman


My baby calls me on the phone
Telling me I need to hurry home
Well the hurryin' is easy 'cause 
she's waiting up
With all the love I'm needin'


I prefer the moonlight and a blanket
And the one right little lady by my side, 
that's what I like
I prefer a late drive down the turnpike 
with the moonlight shinin' so bright
Got her by my side that's what I'd like
When its magic moment time
I prefer the moonlight, 
I prefer the moonlight


The river plays a quiet song
She and I lay down and play along
She's her mother's lovely daughter
Moonlight dances on the water


The moon is full and so am I
I look at her and feel like I could cry
But my tears contain no sorrow
'Cause I know she'll wake 
up by my side tomorrow


I prefer the moonlight and a blanket
And the one right little lady by my side, 
that's what I like
I prefer a late drive down the turnpike 
with the moonlight shinin' so bright
Got her by my side that's what I like


Mornin' noon and night, 
when the feelin' comes around
Somewhere in some sky 
that ol' moon is surely shinin' bright


I prefer the moonlight and a blanket
And the one right little lady by my side, 
oh that's what I like
I prefer a late drive down 
the turnpike with the moonlight 
shinin' so bright
Got her by my side that's what I like


When its magic moment time
I prefer the moonlight, I prefer the moonlight
I prefer the moonlight, I prefer the moonlight
I prefer the moonlight, I prefer the moonlight


Moonlight, moonlight, moonlight
Moonlight, moonlight, moonlight


I prefer the moonlight, I prefer the moonlight
I prefer the moonlight, I prefer the moonlight
I prefer the moonlight, I prefer the moonlight
I prefer the moonlight, I prefer the moonlight
I prefer the moonlight, I prefer the moonlight
