'Sweet Melodies By Moonlight' Poem by Jean Evans

She works all day in that downtown bar
Packin beer and shots arm in arm
She hustles through the crowd of wondering hands
And as they pour on the charm she says, 'I have a man'
She stops at the corner when the lights go on
And at that moment the crowd is gone.

She heard Sweet melodies through the neon light
As he held her attention oh so tight
Nothing was gonna make this dream end
While she's standing there listening to him
She could see the stars in his eyes
She never had a more perfect night
It was all for them and nothing else in sight
But she and him and sweet melodieeeees of neon light.

He sings his songs proud upon that stage
Through the laughter, smoke, and all the rage
Hoping someone out there will put his voice to use
Given him the chance to loosen up the noose
And just when it seems that no one cares
He looks out and sees her standing there
She smiles at him and she's all he sees
So now it's to her only, that he sings.

He saw the sweetest smile through neon lights
As she held his attention oh so tight
Nothing was gonna make this dream end
On that stage while she was looking at him
He could see the stars in her eyes
And he had never had a more perfect night
It was all for them and nothing else in sight
But she and him and sweet melodieeeees of neon light.

Now the light went down and the bar was clear
As they stood outside he pulled her near
He said, 'Come on baby take a walk with me.'
'We'll set in the grass and I'll rub your feet.'
She layed back and gave out a sigh
And said, 'Would you just look at that moon tonight? '
He rolled over and sang to her, 'I know why the moon's so bright',
'Baby cause all the stars are in your eyes~~~~'

And it was Sweet Melodies By Moonlight
They held each other it their arms so tight
No nothing was gonna make this dream end
They were lying there and giving in
They could see the stars in each others eyes
They never had a more perfect night
It was all about the both of them and nothing else in sight
Just their love and making, Sweet Melodieeeees By Moonlight! !
