Moonlight Rider
Neil Diamond · Other Songs - Neil Diamond
I'll sing my song just like I did before
When we were all young
Can you still recall how it was sung?
The songs are only rhymes
Life don't turn out
The way we thought it would
When we were all young
Used to love to hear them love songs sung
I was the moonlight rider
I'd ride out on a sea of dreams
Far away, long ago, so it seems
Won't you take
That moonlight ride with me?
Well, just for one last time
I'll sing my song just like I did before
Maybe you'll sing along
Do you still recall that moonlight song?
I am the moonlight rider
I'm riding on a sea of dreams
Far away, long ago, so it seems
Won't you take
That moonlight ride with me?
