By the light of the moon

When the night holds the secrets

Of the sleepy lagoon

I'm contemplating moonlight

On the water

When I'm walking with you

On an evening in June



On an evening in June

It can get so sentimental

When I'm thinking of you

And I can't think of anything

Except being with you

When the summer is through

On an evening in June



On an evening in June

Well it lifts me up

When I'm talking to you

On an evening in June

When the flowers are in bloom

And the sky is so blue



Well there's so many things

Taking place

That it's hard to keep up with it all

Keep your eye on the ball

And to make the right call

When we're longing for fall

On this evening in June



Instrumental break



On an evening in June

Well it lifts me up

When I'm talking to you

On an evening in June

When the flowers are in bloom

And the sky is so blue



Well there's so many things taking place

That it's hard to keep up with it all

Keep your eye on the ball

And to make the right call

When we're longing for fall

On this evening in June

By the sleepy lagoon

On an evening in June

By the light of the moon

By the sleepy lagoon

On an evening in June

On an evening in June

By the sleepy lagoon

By the light of the moon

By the sleepy lagoon

On an evening in June
