The needle showed the gas was low,
three dollars in my pocket.
Her beauty got the best of me
and she didn't try to stop it.
On a dead end road nobody knows
a thing about but me,
We parked that old Ford pickup truck
underneath that cyprus tree.
Turning midnight,
burning moonlight.
Yeah I was off and running,
my fingers through her hair.
You could cut the passion with a knife
in that southern midnight air.
I kissed her sweet on that pickup seat
as my blue jeans hit the floor.
Her body heat and my cold bare feet
pressed up against the door.
Turning midnight,
burning moonlight.
Oh I still feel the same about you,
I can't spend the night without you.
You still move me.
Turning midnight,
burning moonlight.
It happened fast - just like that,
Didn't take us long.
Like the smoke rings off my cigarette
Our innocence was gone.
Well I wanted to say somethin
She sat there and brushed her hair
and a smile was all she said.
Turning midnight,
burning moonlight.
Girl I still feel the same about you,
I can't spend the night without you.
You still move me.
Turning midnight,
burning moonlight.
Burnin moonlight,
burnin moonlight.
Turning midnight,
burning moonlight.
