MOONLIGHT BECOMES YOU
(Johnny Burke, Jimmy Van Heusen)

This recording of Bing's, from what many consider the best of the Road pictures, Road to Morocco, topped the pop charts for 2 weeks and spent a total of 17 weeks in the charts during 1942-43.

Moonlight becomes you, it goes with your hair
You certainly know the right thing to wear
Moonlight becomes you, I'm thrilled at the sight
And I could get so romantic tonight

You're all dressed up to go dreaming
Now don't tell me I'm wrong
And what a night to go dreaming
Mind if I tag along

If I say I love you
I want you to know
It's not just because there's moonlight
Although, moonlight becomes you so

------ instrumental break ------

You're all dressed up to go dreaming
Now don't tell me I'm wrong
And what a night to go dreaming
Mind if I tag along

If I say I love you
I want you to know
It's not just because there's moonlight
Although, moonlight becomes you so
