By the light of the waning moon

Under a blueblack sky

They talked the slow way home

Of years passed closely by

They caught only a casual look

From strangers with things to do

Only a loveless heart

Could feel anything less than sure



That they`re still in the mood

Still in the mood

After the time has passed

They were still in the mood



You`d take the chimes of midnight

To be the drum of your heart`s desire

And you`d change all you`re golden rings

For one time on the wheel of fire

So take off your shabby coat

Let all the leaves fall down

Leave this stuff till morning

And then come gently round



To be still in the mood

Still in the mood

When the sun has come up

We`ll be still in the mood



We`re still in the mood

Still in the mood

After the time has passed

We are still in the mood
