Won't you meet me out in the moonlight alone.
The dusky light the day is losin'
Orchids, poppies, black-eyed susans
The earth and sky that melts with flesh and bone
Won't you meet me out in the moonlight alone.
The air is thick and heavy
All along the levee
Where the geese into the countryside have flown
Won't you meet me out in the moonlight alone.
Gm
Well, I'm preaching peace and harmony
Cm
The blessings of tranquility
Gm
C7
Yet, I know when the time is right to
strike
Bb
I'll take you 'cross the river, dear
C7
You don't need to linger here
Dm
F
I know the kinds of things you like.
The clouds are turning crimson
The leaves fall from the limbs and
The branches cast their shadows over stone
Won't you meet me out in the moonlight alone.
The boulevards of cypress trees
The masquerade of birds and bees
The petals pink and white the wind has blown
Won't you meet me out in the moonlight alone.
The trailing moss in mystic glow
The purple blossom soft as snow
My tears keep flowing to the sea
Doctor, lawyer, Indian chief
It takes a thief to catch a thief
For whom does the bell toll for, love
It tolls for you and me.
Your pulse is running through my palm
The sharp hills are rising from
Yellow fields with twisted oaks that groan
Won't you meet me out in the moonlight alone.
