[Verse 1]
Maybe tonight I'm gonna tell him how feel
Maybe I'll leave well enough alone
Maybe, just maybe, he'll wanna be my baby
What if he's got plans of his own?
I'm waiting for the perfect moment
Looking for the perfect phrase
The one I finally choose is simply "I love you"
As the words came out, I heard a voice inside me say

[Chorus]
What made you say that?
Was it the moonlight, was it the starlight in your eyes?
What made you say that?
Have you been listening to your heart?
It's too late now, you don't wanna take it back
'Cause I know love's what made you say that

[Verse 2]
I look up to see his reaction
And a smile slowly spread across his face
He said, "What took you so long
That's what I've been waiting on
I thought you'd take forever and a day"

[Chorus]
What made you say that?
Was it the moonlight, was it the starlight in your eyes?
What made you say that?
Have you been listening to your heart?
It's too late now, I won't let you take it back
'Cause I know love's what made you say that

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
What made you say that?
Was it the moonlight, was it the starlight in your eyes?
What made you say that?
Have you been listening to your heart?
It's too late now, you don't wanna take it back
'Cause I know love's what made you say that

[Outro]
Was it the moonlight, was it the starlight in your eyes?
What made you say that?
Have you been listening to your heart?
What made you say that?
Oh, what made you say that?
What made you say that?
Was it the moonlight, was it the starlight in your eyes?
What made you say that?
Have you been listening to your heart?

Shania Twain

Sometimes referred to as the “queen of country pop,” Shania Twain is the best selling female artist in the history of country music, having sold 85 million+ records. She is the first and only female music artist to have three albums in a row certified Diamond by the RIAA.

Shania Twain retired from performing in 2009, citing a weakening singing voice, later consulting specialists who diagnosed her with dysphonia, likely a result of lyme disease. She returned to the stage in her show Still the One in 2012, and begun touring again in 2015.

In October 2016 she told Rolling Stone she had new music coming “really soon” which followed her plans to release her fifth studio album when she was 50.
