Lyrics
A FULL MOON, TENNESSEE NIGHT
ON THE RIVER BANKS, NOT A SOUL IN SIGHT
SAW HER IN THE SHADOWS I WAS MYSTIFIED
SHE CONTROLLED MY SOUL WITH COLE BLACK EYES
AS SHE BECKONED ME CLOSER I COULDN'T RESIST
THEN PASSION EXPLODED IN JUST ONE KISS
MIDNIGHT IN MEMPHIS
THE FULL MOON OVER TENNESSEE
MUST HAVE BEEN THE DIFFERENCE
MY SENSES DIDN'T RESCUE ME
I COULD SEE LOVE REVEALED
FEEL TIME STAND STILL
SHE WAS THE QUEEN OF TEMPTATION
WITH LOOKS THAT CAN KILL
MIDNIGHT IN MEMPHIS
THE CLOCK TICKS, I ANTICIPATE
I'M A PRISONER OF TIME I CAN'T ESCAPE
DRAWN TO THE BANKS OF HER WATERY TOMB
I'M STANDING ON THE DOCKS AT EVERY FULL MOON
WHEN STRAIGHT UP TWELVE IN A COLD DARK MIST
I SELL MY SOUL FOR JUST ONE KISS
REPEAT CHORUS
GENERATIONS PASS BUT I SEEM TO SURVIVE
MAGIC OF THE MOON, SEDUCTION OF THE NIGHT
OVER MYSTIC MUDDY WATER WORLDS COLLIDE
KISS OF DEATH, THEN LOVE COMES ALIVE
REPEAT CHORUS
