(Verse 1)
Down by the Ocoee, where the waters flow,
Underneath a sky where the moonlight glows,
Whispers of the pines sing a sweet serenade,
In the heart of the mountains, I found my way.
(Chorus)
Ocoee moonlight, shining so bright,
Guiding me home on this starry night.
Through the Smoky Mountains, where the wild ones roam,
With you by my side, I’ll never feel alone.
(Verse 2)
Canoes on the river, laughter fills the air,
Chasing that sunset, without a single care.
The leaves tell stories of the lives they’ve seen,
In this Appalachian land, I live my dream.
(Chorus)
Ocoee moonlight, shining so bright,
Guiding me home on this starry night.
Through the Smoky Mountains, where the wild ones roam,
With you by my side, I’ll never feel alone.
(Bridge)
Crickets are singing, the fireflies dance,
In the warm summer night, we take a chance,
Underneath the stars, let’s make a vow,
Forever in this moment, let’s live for now.
(Verse 3)
When the morning breaks, and the mist drifts away,
I’ll cherish these memories, come what may.
The river keeps flowing, as life ebbs and flows,
In the heart of the mountains, my spirit knows.
(Chorus)
Ocoee moonlight, shining so bright,
Guiding me home on this starry night.
Through the Smoky Mountains, where the wild ones roam,
With you by my side, I’ll never feel alone.
(Outro)
So let the river carry our hopes and dreams,
In this Appalachian valley, nothing's as it seems,
With you by my side, I’ll take on the night,
Ocoee moonlight, together we’ll write.
