Moonlight Bay Lyrics


Voices hum crooning over Moonlight Bay
Banjos strum tuning while the moonbeams play
All alone, unknown, they find me
Memories like these remind me
Of the girl I left behind me
Down on Moonlight Bay
We were sailing along on Moonlight Bay
We could hear the voices ringing; they seem to say
You have stolen my heart
Now, don't go away
Just as we sang Love's old sweet song on Moonlight Bay
Tender lights gleaming on the silent shore
Lonely nights dreaming 'till we meet once more
Far apart, her heart is yearning
With a sigh for my returning

With the light of love still burning passing days of yore
We were sailing along on Moonlight Bay
We could hear the voices ringing; they seem to say
You have stolen my heart
Now, don't go away
Just as we sang Love's old sweet song on Moonlight Bay

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Long before the rise of the Mills Brothers and the Ink Spots in the 1930s, the American Quartet (also known as the Premier Quartet) reigned supreme as one of the definitive male vocal groups in traditional pop. The foursome (which should not be confused with a 21st century gospel group that has the same name) was not the only vocal group that was active during traditional pop's acoustical era, which ended with the introduction of electrical recording technology in the mid-1920s and the rise of the crooners.
