Moonlight Dreamers

In a cracked up pavement, dandelions grew

Like a vow from a world that wouldn’t let us down

On an empty schoolyard, the summer was new

We talked about bands and ways to leave this town

We laughed and lied, debated and confided

Tried to fake it to get by

Back at Johnny's house, his folks where out

White lightning struck like a golden blaze

Everyone went crazy, everyone was there that night

A grown up kiss in a twilight haze

We thought we had it, damn I’m sure we did

Have we let it slip away?

In an endless dusk we prospered

When everything was bright and new

A crew of jokers and believers

Moonlight dreamers

We got a band together, although nobody could sing

Learned some chords, one pose, got cocky and loud

Wrote songs that existed, thought we knew everything

Rehearsed in that old house dreaming of a crowd

Just a heartbeat away still another life

Have we let it slip away?

In an endless dusk we prospered

When everything was bright and new

A crew of jokers and believers

Moonlight dreamers

Just a heartbeat away still another life

Have we let it slip away?

In an endless dusk we prospered

When everything was bright and new

A crew of jokers and believers

Moonlight dreamers
