  • Sun goes down on a silky day
    Quarter moon walking through the Milky Way
    Oh, you and me, baby
    We could think of something to do

    It's the right time of the night
    The stars are winking above
    It's the right time of the night
    For making love

    No use talking when the shadows fall
    Night bird's calling and he says it all
    Oh, you and me, baby
    We could think of something to do

    It's the right time of the night
    The stars are winking above
    It's the right time of the night
    For making love

    I got you, you got me
    Tell you, that's the way my mama always said it should be
    I'll be cruel, you be kind
    We'll be bad, if you don't mind

    It's the right time of the night
    The stars are winking above
    It's the right time of the night
    For making love

    It's the right time of the night
    The stars are winking above
    It's the right time of the night
    For making love

    It's the right time of the night
    The stars are winking above
    It's the right time of the night
    For making love Writer/s: Peter James McCann

  • Patrick Dijusto from Ny NyThe alignment of the Sun, Earth, Moon, and Galaxy to produce a "quarter-moon walking through the Milky Way" after sunset only happens in March and September. The languor of the song indicates that it's probably September.
