lyrics

Stay for a while, come rest your head on my shoulder,
It’s already late, and the night’s grown colder.
Say that you might, you’ve no need to hurry.
You’ve got no place you’ve got to go,
and no one to worry.
And if we should find ourselves in each other’s arms..well what’s the harm!
..Put it down to the moonlight, and the old guitar.

Sorry but I can’t stay, the hour is late and I’ve got to go.
We’ve been here before and I know this feeling.
I must say goodnight, before we regret it.
It’s a feeling we used to know,
But we should forget it.
And though the night is cold and the wine tastes sweet...oh I must retreat!
..Put it down to the moonlight, and the old guitar.

This serenade is growing old, my love.
Overplayed, and in memory of
some feelings we may have once been guilty of.
But there’s still more than just a little charm
To be found in the moonlight, and the old guitar.
In the moonlight, and the old guitar
In the moonlight, and the old guitar
In the moonlight, in the moonlight
In the moonlight, in the moonlight
and the old guitar.
In the moonlight, in the moonlight
In the moonlight, in the moonlight
and the old guitar.
