Moonlight and Clover
Down to the hall
the setting was moonlight and clover
She was dressed up and feeling
just like the belle of the ball
The music would play, she'd turn her eyes toward the ceiling
And pretend not to notice she's left all alone once again
Somebody please,
don't let the band play the slow songs
Her heart is so broken,
you know where she's longing to be
In somebody's arms with her head resting safe on a shoulder
When the night and the music
are all that she thought it would be
Out through the door
she knows there's nobody waiting
And on her way homeward
the music still rings in her ears
And in every song
she's lost in the arms of a stranger
Come moonlight and clover
she'll make her way back here again
