Lyrics for What A Little Moonlight Can Do

What a little moonlight can do to you You're in love Your heart's a flutter all day long You only stutter 'cause your poor tongue Just will not utter the words, "I love you" Ooh-ooh-ooh What a little moonlight can do Wait a while 'Til a little moonbeam comes peepin' through You'll get bold You can't resist him and all you'll say When you have kissed him is, "Ooh-ooh-ooh" What a little moonlight can do Aww-ooh-ooh What a little moonlight can do Aww-ooh-ooh What a little moonlight can do to you You're in love Your heart's a flutter all day long You only stutter 'cause your poor tongue Will not utter the words, "I love you" Oh-ooh-ooh What a little moonlight can do Wait a while 'Til a little moonbeam comes peepin' through You'll get bold You can't resist him and all you'll say When you have kissed him is, "Ooh-ooh-ooh" Aww-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (yeah) Aww-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh" What a little moonlight can do (Hey-ya)
