The lights of the town were just shutting down
The sun was fresh on the rise
I met momma at the door, she'd been walking the floor
She said, "Boy, you've got stars in your eyes"

And momma, I was walking on the moon last night
And two loving arms held me tight
As the stars danced around so bright
I was walking on the moon last night

Now momma she did weep
"Boy you've been walking in your sleep
You can't keep your feet on the ground
It's not always what it seems
Young love may be a dream
And some angels fly high just to fall down"

But momma, I was walking on the moon last night
And two loving arms held me tight
As the stars danced around so bright
I was walking on the moon last night

Now the lights of the town are glowing yellow brown
The moon is beginning to rise and I left momma at the door
I said, "Don't worry any more
I've seen daddy put those same stars in your eyes"

And momma, I'll be walking on the moon tonight
And two loving arms will hold me tight
As the stars dance around so bright
I'll be walking on the moon tonight

And I'll be walking on the moon tonight
And two loving arms will hold me tight
As the stars dance around so bright
I'll be walking on the moon tonight
