lyrics

There’s a girl of seven years, her hair’s tied up in curls, she holds his hand on a warm summer's night. He makes a space for her, the largest place in his heart, she dances on his feet and tastes the sweetest candy. When the night falls, she looks to the sky. Mister moon, does your daddy dance with you in June, mister moon, sing me a midnight tune. There's a girl of eleven years, they're on the road and he is steering. She gazes out the window as he drives her to and fro, and the face on the horizon, her eyes are on him. He holds out his hand and offers her the sweetest candy. She looks to the sky and says mister moon, will the night be over soon, mister moon, sing me a midnight tune. There's a girl of seventeen and she's the queen of his heart, she holds his hand as he catches her fall. Her hair's in braids, she makes the grade, he invites her to the floor. He opens his hand and together they dance, and it's sweet like candy. She looks over his shoulder. Mister moon, does your lover give you room. Mister moon, sing me a midnight tune. Everyone falls, everyone crawls, everyone waits for their mother's call, but father father follows you wherever you go, following you home. There's a girl who keeps the future of the world in a box by her bed. She holds the stars in her hand and she drops them thread by thread. He holds her hand and gives her her favorite candy. And they share a grander plan. And together they dance again. Mister moon, does your daddy dance with you in June? Mister moon, does your lover give you room? Mister moon, will the night be over soon? Mister moon, sing me a midnight tune.
