Virginia Moon Lyrics

I hate to say it but I think this means exactly how is sounds. I think it's about the beauty of the moon and the romanticism that beauty brings with nightfall.

Dearest constellation, heaven surrounding you Stay there, soft and blue Virginia Moon, I'll wait for you tonight

[The night is beautiful and they await the moon]

Sweetest invitation, breaking the day in two Feeling like I do Virginia Moon, I'll wait for you tonight

[When nightfall comes, the day takes a different turn and along with that turn comes a different feeling. In other words..."the night is young."

And now our shapes become shadows in your light In the morning when we're through And tomorrow rescues you I will say goodnight

[They use the light and illumination of the moon as much as they can until the morning comes and takes away the romanticism. Until the next moon, they have bid it adeu.]

Secret fascination, whisper a quiet tune Hear me calling you Virginia Moon, I'll wait for you tonight

[Their love of the moon is not discussed yet they call to it quietly in song]
