The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Moonlight Becomes You" by the artist "Willie Nelson"

In the song "Moonlight Becomes You," Willie Nelson celebrates the beauty of his beloved and the romance that moonlight evokes in him.

From the very first lines - "Moonlight becomes you, it goes with your hair" - the author makes it clear that his lady love is enchanting in the moonlight. The phrase "You certainly know what to wear" hints at her impeccable taste and ability to emphasize her attractiveness.

Further, Nelson admits that he is delighted with her appearance ("Moonlight becomes you, I'm enthralled just by the sight of you") and is ready to succumb to the romantic mood ("And I could get so romantic tonight").

He sees that his beloved is also in the mood for romance ("You're dressed up to the nines, so divine"), and assures her that this night seems to be made for love ("What a night for dreaming!"). Nelson doesn't miss the opportunity to offer her his company ("Don't you mind if I dream along with you?").

In the chorus, the singer confesses his love ("And if I told you I love you, I want you to know"), but emphasizes that his feelings are not just the result of a romantic atmosphere ("It's not the moonlight that makes me this way"). Although, he doesn't deny that the moonlight, which makes her even more beautiful, enhances his feelings ("Though moonlight becomes you, and that's all I can say").

The repetition of the second verse and chorus emphasizes the strength of the emotions experienced by the hero, and enhances the impression of the song, leaving the listener with a feeling of romance and love.
