Langston Hughes
Moon-Faced, Starry-Eyed
[Verse 1]
Moon-faced, starry-eyed
Peaches and cream with nuts on the side
I never knew there was anyone livin' like you

[Verse 2]
Moon-faced, starry-eyed
I'm gonna bust my vest with pride
I never lived, baby, not at all 'til I met you (Yeah)

[Bridge]
At six o'clock I expect your call
At seven o'clock I'm in the hall
At eight o'clock if you don't come by
By nine o'clock, baby, I die!

[Verse 3]
Moon-faced, starry-eyed
Cookin' with gas when I'm by your side
I swear my heart's nowhere without you

[Verse 4]
Moon-faced, starry-eyed
You're whiskey straight with beer on the side
Can it be true that I'm loved by a Tarzan like you?
[Verse 5]
Moon-faced, starry-eyed
You took my heart on a buggy ride
I don't know how I got ever along without you

[Bridge]
At six o'clock I'm gettin' up steam
At seven o'clock I'm on the beam
At eight o'clock if the knob don't turn
By nine o'clock, baby, I burn!

[Verse 6]
Moon-faced, starry-eyed
Floatin' on clouds when I'm by your side
I swear, I swear
I swear my heart's nowhere without you!
