Dancing In The Moonlight
Homecomings Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Float on the silent night
Feel like a cheap satellite
All thoughts let you down
Please tell me what you're telescoped say now
Sing for tonight
Sorry for I can't be very well when I turn on the light
You're out of sight
Please bring me to that moon
To make out fortune-telling
Brilliant things
I know you should be with me
Close to sounds of town
To make for the searchlight
Blowing chewing gum
We'll stay forever in the brightest time
Sing for tonight
Sorry for I can't be very well when I turn on the light
You're out of sight please
Bring me to that moon
To make out fortune-telling
Brilliant things
I know you should be with me
Don't be down for anything yourself
We have some secret thins both and we know that things are sure
Maybe streetlight feigning ignorance
Doesn't wake up sleeping trees
It's only moonlight now
Silent night
Feel like a cheap satellite




All thoughts let you down
Please tell me what you're telescoped say now

There is an underlying sense of loneliness and yearning in the lyrics, as the singer expresses a desire for connection and understanding.


The lyrics of “Dancing In The Moonlight” tap into universal feelings of isolation and the need for human connection. The song’s dreamy, poetic language creates a mood of introspection and contemplation, inviting listeners to lose themselves in the lush, atmospheric soundscape.
