Moonlighting
Moonlit Moments: A Serenade to Love and Lakeside Adventures
Lyrics
Girl you got your feet on the rocks in the cool clear water
Describing the setting where the girl has her feet in cool, clear water on rocks.
As I'm sitting there in front of you getting a ray ban tan
The speaker is sunbathing, possibly wearing Ray-Ban sunglasses.
The sun in your face gets your blue eyes bothered
The sun bothers the girl's blue eyes, causing her to wrinkle her nose.
Makes you wrinkle your nose and block it out with your hand
The girl blocks the sun from her face with her hand.
See I know a place on the lake we can go watch the sun hide behind the trees
Suggesting a secluded place on the lake to watch the sunset.
Listen to crickets start singing the blues turn to pink
Imagery of crickets singing as the sky transitions from blue to pink.
As the sun gets to sinking it's all got me thinking
The speaker is contemplative as the sun sets.
You and me can do some moonlighting
Proposing the idea of spending time together in the moonlight.
No one around just little fires flying
Describing a quiet, intimate moment with no one around, with fires flying.
Floating just off the ground like I feel whenever I'm around you
The speaker feels uplifted and light whenever around the girl.
Nature's dimmer slowly sunsetting the mood
Nature's dimming, setting a romantic mood.
For a little bit of moonlighting
Reiteration of the desire for moonlighting, suggesting a romantic connection.
Girl we got our feet in the sand by the driftwood fire
Change of scene to the beach with a driftwood fire, enjoying favorite songs.
Singing along to favourite songs on our phones as we lean on in
Sharing a moment, possibly falling in love, compared to tripping over a wire.
Fallin for you like tripping over a wire
The speaker is captivated, falling for the girl.
Hook line and sinker I think you've got me eating from the palm of your hand
Expressing being caught by the girl, metaphorically eating from her hand.
You took my arm and you pulled me to shore I was hoping for more than just a rock skip
Recalling a moment by the water, hoping for more than a simple rock skipping experience.
Told me to turn no peeking and hung your new jeans on an old limb
Describing a playful action involving the girl's new jeans on an old limb.
You've got my mind going places heart running races I'm counting the bases
Expressing the impact the girl has on the speaker's thoughts and emotions.
I'm a goner let's face it
Admitting to being captivated and acknowledging the romantic inevitability.
You and me can do some moonlighting
Reiteration of the desire for moonlighting, with little embers flying.
No one around just little embers flying floating down to the ground
Continuation of the intimate moment with warm water and diving imagery.
This water's warm won't you come on in
Invitation to join in the warm water.
A hop skip and a jump and I was diving in
The speaker is enthusiastically diving into the experience.
For a little bit of moonlighting
Reiteration of the desire for moonlighting, reinforcing the romantic atmosphere.
Moonlighting no one around just little fires flying
Further emphasis on the moonlighting idea, with fires flying and floating.
Floating just off the ground like I feel whenever I'm around you
Repeating the feeling of lightness and joy when around the girl.
Nature's dimmer slowly sunsetting the mood
Recalling the dimming of nature, setting a romantic mood once more.
For a little bit of moonlighting
Reiteration of the desire for moonlighting, emphasizing the romantic aspect.
Cuz I can think of a couple things for us to do
Suggesting various activities for the two to enjoy together.
No one around just the stars and the man on the moon
Describing a serene scene with just stars and the moon, ideal for moonlighting.
And a little bit of moonlighting
Reiteration of the desire for moonlighting, completing the song.
