Title:
“Strawberry Moonlight”
Full song lyrics:
(Verse 1)
Am – C – G – F
Underneath the strawberry moonlight, we danced till dawn,
In your eyes, I could see a love so strong.
Hand in hand, through the fields, we’d walk all night,
Living in a dream, under the strawberry moonlight.
(Chorus)
G – D – Am – C
Strawberry moonlight, shine down on us,
In your glow, we found something wondrous.
In your light, we get lost, we take flight,
Underneath the beautiful, strawberry moonlight.
(Verse 2)
Am – C – G – F
In the soft glow, our shadows intertwined,
Underneath the strawberry moonlight, love we’d find.
With hearts beating fast, in rhythm with the night,
Nothing else matters, under the strawberry moonlight.
(Chorus)
G – D – Am – C
Strawberry moonlight, casting a magical spell,
In your luminous presence, we fell.
In the still of the night, you shine so bright,
Oh, how we love you, strawberry moonlight.
