Full Harvest Moon September 2019



... The title track to Harvest Moon, a sequel to his 1972 classic Harvest. Young reformed the same studio band from the original Harvest, and even got James Taylor and Linda Ronstadt to contribute backing vocals – as they did on the original. The song is as tribute to his wife Pegi, and in the video for the song the couple dances in a bar – even as another Neil Young is onstage singing the song. 


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 eye

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
