Just give me one good reason to stay tonight
Must be something you could say to me
To keep me warm on this cold cold night
Can you bring out the best in me?

That old moon is shining brightly
Up above the midnight plains
I only want your love to guide me
Back through the night
And take us home again

Can I bring out the best in you, as well?
Must be some way you could let me know
While we wait out the sun, only time will tell
Will you love me or let me go?

That old moon is shining brightly
Up above the midnight plains
I only want your love to guide me
Back through the night
And take us home again

So now, my friend, with this gentle plea
Can you tell me what is on your mind?
There's just one good reason, that's all I need
To chase the sorrow from your eyes
That old moon is shining brightly
Up above the midnight plains
I only want your love to guide me
Back through the night
And take us home again
