Gerry Rafferty Lyrics

"Moonlight And Gold" lyrics


Moonlight and goldMidsummer magic when the night turns to dayAnd songbirds greet the dawnYou lie awakeYou watch and wonder while the moon fades awayAnd one more day is born.
Tides keep on turning, while hearts keep on yearningTo be where they know they belongAll on a new day, you see in a new wayThe things you've been leaning upon.
Moonlight and goldI will awaken to a love that runs deeperThan the need in me.
While you are sleeping, the new day comes creepingAnd life keeps on passing you byMagic unfolds when the blue meets the goldAnd the sun comes to open your eyes.
Moonlight and goldMidsummer magic when the night turns to dayAnd songbirds greet the dawnYou lie awakeYou watch and wonder while the moon fades awayAnd one more day is born.
Oh yeah
