Moonlight In My Mind (Willie's Song)

slow piano ballad

Once in life you find someone
Makes you feel like no-one can
I found the only one I love
Married to another man
I begged her and I pleaded
But she kept him on the line
Now she's his daytime woman
But in moonlight she's all mine

She's just, like moonlight
Moonlight in my mind
Cold and hard as steel
But she shine, shine, shine
And when the night is over
And the sun begins to shine
I lie alone and wish it could
Be moonlight all the time

It doesn't seem to matter
What I say or do
She wants the best from both of us
Doesn't care if she's untrue
She spends his daytime money
Then gets my love for free
I wish I could just close my eyes
And let that moonlight be

She's just, like moonlight
Moonlight in my mind
Cold and hard as steel
But she shine, shine, shine
And when the night is over
And the day begins to break
I lie alone and wonder
How much moonlight can I take

Tomorrow when the sun goes down
I'll be on that evening train
Headed west for somewhere else
To start my life again
And when the journey's over
When the sun begins to shine
I'll find someone, forget about
Moonlight in my mind

She's just, like moonlight
Moonlight in my mind
Cold and hard as steel
But she shine, shine, shine
And when my life is over
When that light begins to shine
You know I will remember her
As moonlight in my mind.
