Can't Fight the Moonlight Lyrics

Under a lover's sky Gonna be with you And no one's gonna be around If you think that you won't fall Well, just wait until 'Til the sun goes down Underneath the starlight, starlight There's a magical feeling, so right It will steal your heart tonight You can try to resist Try to hide from my kiss But you know, but you know that you Can't fight the moonlight Deep in the dark, you'll surrender your heart But you know, but you know that you Can't fight the moonlight No, you can't fight it It's gonna get to your heart There's no escaping love Once a gentle breeze Weaves its spell upon your heart No matter what you think It won't be too long (not too long) 'Til you're in my arms Underneath the starlight, starlight We'll be lost in the rhythm, so right Feel it steal your heart tonight You can try to resist Try to hide from my kiss But you know, but you know that you Can't fight the moonlight Deep in the dark, you'll surrender your heart But you know, but you know that you can't Can't fight the moonlight No, you can't fight it No, matter what you do (no matter what you do) The night is gonna get to you (Never know Cannot know) Don't try, you're never gonna win Underneath the starlight, starlight There's a magical feeling, so right It will steal your heart tonight You can try (You can try to resist, try to hide from my kiss but you know) But you know that you (you know that you) Can't fight the moonlight Deep in the dark (deep in the dark) You'll surrender your heart But you know, but you know that you Can't fight the moonlight, no, you can't fight it (You can try) You can try to resist my kiss But you know, don't you know that you can't? Can't fight the moonlight deep in the dark You'll surrender your heart (surrender your heart) But you know, but you know that you Can't fight the moonlight No, you can't fight it It's gonna get to your heart

Meaning of Can't Fight the Moonlight

Under a romantic sky, this song speaks of an irresistible and inevitable love, symbolized by the “moonlight” that pulls you in. The artist, LeAnn Rimes, conveys a feeling of surrender to a powerful attraction – it’s a recognition that resistance is futile; you simply can't fight the magnetic pull of this person's affection. There’s an acceptance of being completely consumed, with the “starlight” representing a magical and captivating force. The repeated refrain, "Can't fight the moonlight," emphasizes this inescapable destiny, suggesting a vulnerability and yielding to a love that will ultimately steal your heart. Despite attempts to resist or hide, the song acknowledges the potent allure and the eventual surrender of one’s heart within the darkness, highlighting themes of romance, desire, and accepting an undeniable connection.
