Dancing in the Moonlight
Konoba Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We only came to see you
Juggling about with the sounds in her mind
And make her moan
The lights are down
The time has come for you
To show us your love, make her blind
For us to see
They'll be knocking at the door
With ink on their sleeves
Dancing in the moonlight
Maybe you will like it but I wont
I stood in line
I put my hands on you
And told you about the things on my mind
And that I knew
The lights are down
The time has come for you
To show us your love, make her blind
For us to see
Do I even need to turn around and raise my head
To know you closed your eyes
You're happy again
Don't fall asleep just yet
They'll be knocking at the door
With ink on their sleeves
Dancing in the moonlight
Maybe you will like it but I wont
Don't fall asleep just yet
They'll be knocking at the door
With ink on their sleeves
Dancing in the moonlight
Maybe you will like it but I wont
fall asleep just yet
They'll be knocking at the door
With ink on their sleeves
Dancing in the moonlight
Maybe you will like it but I wont
The lyrics of Konoba's song "Dancing In the Moonlight" convey a sense of anticipation, as the singer describes a scene of people waiting for someone to perform and "juggling about with the sounds in her mind." The performance seems to be an intimate one, with the lights down low and the suggestion that the performer is making someone "moan" through their music. There is a sense of voyeurism in the lyrics, as the singer describes watching the performance and trying to "see" what is going on, even though they are not directly involved in it. The repeated refrain of "Don't fall asleep just yet / They'll be knocking at the door / With ink on their sleeves" emphasizes the sense of anticipation and possibility, as if something unexpected or exciting is about to happen.
The end of the song suggests a shift in tone, as the singer recounts a personal interaction with the performer and admits that they "won't" like the dancing in the moonlight, despite the earlier suggestion of excitement and anticipation. This could be interpreted as a commentary on the difference between public performance and private experience, or on the idea that sometimes our expectations don't match up with reality.
Overall, the lyrics of "Dancing In the Moonlight" convey a sense of waiting and anticipation, with a slightly voyeuristic tone. The repeated refrain emphasizes the sense of possibility and unpredictability that comes with waiting for something to happen.

We only came
We came solely for this purpose
We only came to see you
We came to see you specifically
Juggling about with the sounds in her mind
Experimenting with different sounds in her head
And make her moan
And evoke strong emotions
The lights are down
The lights have been dimmed
The time has come for you
It is now your turn
To show us your love, make her blind
To express your passion and captivate our attention
For us to see
So that we can witness it
Don't fall asleep just yet
Stay alert for what is to come
They'll be knocking at the door
More challenges will arise
With ink on their sleeves
Carrying their own motivations and intentions
Dancing in the moonlight
Finding joy in the moment and letting go
Maybe you will like it but I wont
Others may enjoy it, but I do not share the same sentiment
I stood in line
I patiently waited my turn
I put my hands on you
I touched you
And told you about the things on my mind
And shared my thoughts and feelings
And that I knew
And expressed my certainty
Do I even need to turn around and raise my head
Is it even necessary for me to look around?
To know you closed your eyes
To understand that you are enjoying yourself
You're happy again
You have regained your happiness
fall asleep just yet
Do not rest yet
