Follow me down to the Starlight Motel While everyone's sleeping tonight Don't be afraid, I know what's on your mind I'm gonna make it alright Well I know it's cold and I know it's late But our life is short, darling I can't wait Follow my footsteps and silently step Out to the road in the moonlight The stars in the sky are all laid out for us They'll watch over our love tonight Well I know it's cold and I know it's late But our life is short, darling I can't wait Won't you join me for this dance It may be our only chance Baby don't say no tonight There's times I believe that we'll never return But the moon always has to start falling Blankets protect you from the cold before dawn But they can't protect you from the morning
