the daylight fades
to golden gray
the bridges glow
the lights cascade
the night is ours
the game is on
the downtown crowds
they cheer us on
we could do no wrong
oh
now my love
night is young
and we're just sliding out at midnight
oh
so headstrong
can we go on
without fighting in the moonlight
a careless word
misunderstood
apologize
it does no good
we dance and scream
we kiss and yell
a moonlit night
that feels like hell
we know it all to well
oh
now my love
night is young
and we're just sliding out at midnight
both
so headstrong
we can't go on
if we're fighting in the moonlight
you look so beautiful tonight my dear
don't let it wash away in endless tears
we fell in love to watch it fall apart
the moonlight shining on our broken hearts
oh
now my love
night is young
and we're just sliding out at midnight
both
so headstrong
we can't go on
if we're just fighting in the moonlight
oh
now my love
night is young
and we're just sliding out at midnight
no
making love
until dawn
instead we're fighting in the moonlight
we can't go on
we can't go on and on and on
oh just fighting in the moonlight
we can't go on
we can't go on and on and on
we're just fighting in the moonlight
