You may think that two onto one isn’t fair
But all’s fair in love, so beware
For tonight, I’ve got the moon on my side
You haven’t got a chance and there is nothing you can do
Don’t fight, I’ve got the moon on my side
And soon, you’ll be on my side, too
I found a river bird and when I give the word, he’ll sing
I even played the breeze to serenade the trees
And a chapel bell to ring
I booked a little guy to play a gentle violin
And with a team like this, you know you can’t resist, give in
And what is more
Tonight, I’ve got the moon on my side
You haven’t got a chance and there is nothing you can do
Don’t fight, I’ve got the moon on my side
And soon you’ll be on my side, too
So you can blame the moon
And you’re plain too soon, tonight
And if you think you see him throw a wink at me
Well you know you could be right
And in the cool night air I’m gonna touch your hair and sigh
Then we’ll caress, and soon
You’re gonna bless the moon and I
So don’t forget
Tonight, I’ve got the moon on my side
You haven’t got a chance and there is nothing you can do
Don’t fight, I’ve got the moon on my side
And soon you’ll be on my side too
You’ll be on my side too
You’ll be on my side too
I’ve got the moon on my side
