Song lyrics Dancing in the moonlight (it?s caught me in its spotlight) by Thin Lizzy

When I passed you in the doorway
Well, you took me with a glance
I should have took that last bus home
But I asked you for a dance

Now we go steady to the pictures
I always get chocolate stains on my pants
And my father he's going crazy
He say's I'm living in a trance

But I'm dancing in the moonlight
It's caught me in its spotlight, it's alright, alright
Dancing in the moonlight
On this long hot summer night

It's three o'clock in the morning
And I'm on the streets again
I disobeyed another warning
I should have been in by ten

Now I won't get out 'til Sunday
I'll have to say I stayed with friends
Ooh but it's a habit worth forming
If it means to justify the end

Dancing in the moonlight
It's caught me in its spotlight, it's alright, alright
Dancing in the moonlight
On this long hot summer night

And I'm walkin' home
The last bus, 't is long gone
But I'm dancing in the moonlight

Dancing in the moonlight
It's caught me in its spotlight, it's alright, alright
Dancing in the moonlight
On this long hot summer night ....
