The Doors
Moonlight Drive (Incl. Horse Latitudes)
[Verse 1]
Let's swim to the moon, uh huh
Let's climb through the tide
Penetrate the evening that the
City sleeps to hide
Let's swim out tonight, love
It's our turn to try
Parked beside the ocean
On our moonlight drive
[Verse 2]
Let's swim to the moon, uh huh
Let's climb through the tide
Surrender to the waiting worlds
That lap against our side
Nothing left open
And no time to decide
We've stepped into a river
On our moonlight drive
[Chorus]
Let's swim to the moon
Let's climb through the tide
You reach your hand to hold me
But I can't be your guide
Easy, I love you, as I watch you glide
Falling through wet forests on our moonlight drive
Moonlight drive
[Bridge]
Come on baby, gonna take a little ride
On down by the ocean side
Get real close
Get real tight
Baby gonna drown tonight
Goin' down, down, down, down
Goin' down
Goin' down
Way down
Down, down, down, down
Down, down, deep below
[Interlude]
Children of the caves will let their secret fires glow
[Spoken Word]
When the still sea conspires an armor
And her sullen and aborted currents breed tiny monsters
True sailing is dead
Awkward instant, and the first animal is jettisoned
Legs furiously pumping their stiff green gallop
And heads bob up
Poise; delicate; pause; consent
In mute nostril agony
Carefully refined and sealed over
[Outro]
Easy to love you as I watch you glide
Yeah, we're falling through wet forests on our moonlight drive
Moonlight drive
Moonligth drive
Moonlight drive
