Ellis Paul - Friday Night Lyrics

The moon must know it's fridayhe's been drinking all night
Crooning and swooning
He says come dance in the half-light
So you whirl out a stepchoreographed by wine
And you dance with the moonthe starsand the stop sign

(chorus)

In my mindI see a lifetime of tonights
But I'll keep that thought sealed tight
Live for the moment that is tonight
There's no rain in the guttersthe moon's fully bright
Let it shine all it's power
I may not get another friday night...

You whirl and a child-like wisdom glows on your face
The moon you have embraced you left him spell-boundstaggeredin his starrystarry place
Roundroundroundhe's spinning round youround you
Dancingtwirlingin a wild lunar chase

Though the moon's all but eclipsed tonight
By curtains and candlelight he's tapping at me through the window pane
In his top hat and cane...
