Mel Tormé
Don’t Let That Moon Get Away
It’s one of those nights for adventure
We ought to be recklessly gay
Who knows what we’ll find, so if you’re inclined
Don’t let that moon get away
Your eyes have a way of revealing
The thoughts that you really should say
It may be romance, so while there’s a chance
Don’t let that moon get away
And don’t let this meeting adjourn
And don’t be so ready to go
For now is the right time to learn
What every young heart should know
These moments don’t happen so often
It doesn’t seem right to delay
If you feel a tune, whatever you do
Don’t let that moon get away
And don’t let this meeting adjourn
Don’t be so ready to go
For now is the right time to learn
These moments don’t happen so often
I kinda think we shouldn't delay
If you feel a tune, here's what you do
You'd better take advice from Tormé
And don’t let that moon get away
Don’t you dare let that moon get away
Baby, don’t let that moon get away
