[Verse]
Hold me tight
The moon is so bright
Tonight is so right for love
Now's the time
To say you're the one
Tonight is so right for love

One by one the stars appear
They twinkle in your eyes
Who'd believe that we'd be here
So near to paradise

This could be the kiss
To unlock heaven's door
That magic hour of bliss
That we both waited for
I love you more and more

[Chorus]
Oh, we could fly right up to the sky
The things we've been dreaming of
And how real they would seem
A midsummer night's dream
Can't you see that tonight's so right for love

And how real they would seem
A midsummer night's dream
Can't you see that tonight's so right for love

[Outro]
Hold me tight
The moon's so bright
Tonight is so right for love

Elvis Aaron Presley (January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977) was an American performer that spanned all media—music, film, and historic live concerts—with a vehement passion that earned him the moniker, “The King of Rock and Roll.”

Elvis Presley was born in Tupelo, Mississippi to Gladys and Vernon Presley. At the age of 13, he moved with his family to Memphis, Tennessee. Elvis began to explore the blues scene prevalent in Memphis and the culture it encompassed.

In August 1953, he walked into Sun Records to record a song for his mother’s birthday. Manager of Sun Records Sam Phillips took note of his unique voice and persona, and invited Elvis back to the studio in July 1954, where he ultimately recorded his first true single, “That’s All Right,” with “Blue Moon of Kentucky” as the B-side.
