It's a Saturday night like any Saturday night
And I am stranded in the moonlight
Or is it just that it seems I am caught in the beam
Of a halo from a streetlight
The heat makes lightning in the summer air
Electricity is everywhere
And the wheels of the night go spinning
And time is beginning to slip right through my hands
Stranded in the moonlight
So in love with you right now
Got to get to you somehow
I never thought I could love you more but I do
Swear I'd be a fool for you
I'd go from corner to corner emptyhanded
Stranded in the moonlight

It's a Saturday night like any Saturday night
And I get off work at midnight
High above me the stars and beside me the cars
And a motorcycle's headlight
The lights are out on Lake Shore Drive
The clocks have stopped at ten to five
And the wheels of the night go turning
The stars are burning my face my lips my hands
Stranded in the moonlight
So in love with you right now
Got to get to you somehow
I never thought I could love you more but I do
Swear I'd be a fool for you
I'd go from corner to corner emptyhanded
Stranded in the moonlight

It is a life to live like any life to live
And I am gonna let it take me
Or is it just that it seems I am caught in this dream
And you're the only one can wake me
The lights go on again the traffic moves
A million radios begin to groove
And the wheels of the night go turning
My soul is burning
My heart's at your command
Stranded in the moonlight
So in love with you right now
Got to get to you somehow
I never thought I could love you more but I do
Swear I'd be a fool for you
I'd go from corner to corner emptyhanded
Stranded in the moonlight
I'd go from corner to corner emptyhanded
Stranded in the moonlight
