About The Song
“Harvest Moon” is a song written by Neil Young and released as the first single from his 1992 album “Harvest Moon”. The song uses a moon motif, which Young has mentioned as being very important to him and having quasi-religious undertones. The song reached No. 36 on the UK Singles Chart. The album “Harvest Moon” is the 19th studio album by Canadian musician Neil Young, released on November 2, 1992. Many of its backing musicians also appeared on Young’s 1972 album “Harvest”.
The lyrics of the song depict two people in love under the light of a harvest moon and dancing to the music of the night. The chorus of the song expresses the singer’s feeling that he is still deeply in love with the person he is singing to, and he wants to see them dance and be together in that moment.
Lyrics
Come a little bit closer
Hear what I have to say
Just like children sleepin'
We could dream this night away
But there's a full moon risin'
Let's go dancin' in the light
We know where the music's playin'
Let's go out and feel the night
Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon
When we were strangers
I watched you from afar
When we were lovers
I loved you with all my heart
But now it's gettin' late
And the moon is climbin' high
I want to celebrate
See it shinin' in your eyes
Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon
Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon
