Verse Stars fell down on a small town Saturday Late one spring The moon said I'm just a lonely satellite Dancin' on a string I was in the back of a ball gown I'd never done it before You laughed and kissed me wild and carefree And let it fall to the floor And then the moon and the stars Did a rock and roll slow dance Like two kids at the prom Who found first love and lost their innocence Between midnight and dawn What a lovely way to start Even though it broke two hearts On a rock and roll slow dance Verse Celestial bodies dance and spin Engle got it right As spring rolls round we dance again If only in my mind I go back to the very first time When the moon and the stars Did a rock and roll slow dance Like two kids at the prom Who found first love and lost their innocence Between midnight and dawn We both let our hearts get tangled That's the way it ought to be New directions different angles That I'll remember endlessly Instrumental: And then the moon and the stars Did a rock and roll slow dance Like two kids at the prom Who found first love and lost their innocence Between midnight and dawn What a lovely way to start Even though it broke two hearts On a rock and roll slow dance On a rock and roll slow dance Rock and roll slow dance
