SAVANNAH MOON
(Susan Longacre / Byron Walls / Dan Tyler)

Sammi Smith - 1990



A hot night in Savannah, a glance across the room
I was drawn to you like the ocean being pulled by the Moon
You were cool and distant, I was in a restless mood
Isn't it strange what strangers sometimes do

Savannah Moon (Savannah Moon) outside the window
Slow movin' fan in a faded hotel room
Lyin' with you (Lyin' with you), here in the shadows
You can blame it on that old Savannah Moon

(Instrumental Break)

The Moon wears a halo, there's somethin' in the air
Somethin' strong is brewin' off the coast somewhere
Don't talk about tomorrow, just watch the clouds roll in
When they hide the Moon we'll be strangers once again

Savannah Moon (Savannah Moon) outside the window
Slow movin' fan in a faded hotel room
Lyin' with you (Lyin' with you), here in the shadows
You can blame it on that old Savannah Moon

Savannah Moon (Savannah Moon) outside the window
Slow movin' fan in a faded hotel room
Lyin' with you (Lyin' with you), here in the shadows
You can blame it on that old Savannah Moon
You can blame it on that old Savannah Moon
