Moonlight Serenade Lyrics by Chicago

The Studio Albums 1979-2008

1995

[Verse 1: Jason Scheff, with bandmates]
Stars are aglow
And tonight how their light
Sets me dreaming
My love, do you know
That your eyes are like stars
Brightly beaming
I bring you and sing you
A moonlight serenade

[Pre-Chorus: Jason Scheff, with bandmates]
Let us stray
'Till break of day
In love's valley of dreams
You and I, a summer sky
A heavenly breeze kisses the trees

[Chorus: Robert Lamm, with bandmates]
So don't make me wait
Come to me, tenderly
In the June light
I stand at your gate
And I sing you a song
In the moonlight
A love song, my darling
A moonlight serenade

[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus: Robert Lamm, Jason Scheff]
Let us stray
'Till break of day
In love's valley of dreams
You and I, a summer sky
A heavenly breeze kisses the trees

[Chorus: Jason Scheff with Robert Lamm]
So don't make me wait
Come to me, tenderly
In the June light
I stand at your gate
And I sing you a song
In the moonlight
A love song, my darling
A moonlight serenade

[Interlude: Robert Lamm]
Oh, oh, woah
A moonlight serenade

[Outro: All]
Oh, let it be tonight
Tonight, tonight
In the moonlight
Let it be tonight
Got to be tonight
Tonight
