Leo (Gerry) Sayer nació el 21 de mayo de 1948 en Shoreham-by-Sea, una localidad británica ubicada en Sussex.
Después de hacer sus primeros pinitos en el coro parroquial, acudir durante un tiempo a una escuela de arte y diseño, y tras intentarlo en los años 60 con la Terraplane Blues Band Sayer, Sayer se acomodó en la siguiente década al soft-rock, interpretando música comercial, domesticada, de cierta artesanía compositiva, poco memorable, que le llevó a conseguir el éxito.

C ... He sees her at the same time every night G at the Mexican discotheque She gives him french kisses C He gives her french cigarettes They sit at the same table every time The lights are low But their eyes shine G Just digging the music from those sweet soul bands She keeps him outta fights Holds on to his hand
FG He whispers slowly .... "tonight's the night" CF Months of planning so it's gotta be right G Under the table her bag is busting at the seams CF She made sure to bring everything
C Moonlighting they're leaving everything G Moonlighting they're losing all their friends C Moonlighting it's the only way G It's frightening but it means they'll stay F Together they're gonna make it CG togetheee ... ... eer
C ... His blue Morris van is parked in an alley G Just by Montague street His friend Eddie he did the respray C So he couldn't drive it all last week And it cost most of the money That he had saved up G To pay Eddie's receipt But he figures it's worth it Cause the disguise is a must C When they go missing They're gonna look for the van first
FG She whispers slowly: "it'll be alright" CF I took some cash from my building society G And my monthly check came in just right CF If only they knew they weren't giving it away
C Moonlighting they're leaving everything G Moonlighting they're losing all their friends C Moonlighting it's the only way G It's frightening but it means they'll stay F Together they're gonna make it CG togetheee ... ... eer

D ... 9:15 Monday morning at the printing works A The boss notices someone's not clocked in And the water department of the council offices has a message D That Mrs. Park's daughter is missing Meanwhile the Carlisle turnoff of the m6 motorway Drinking cold black coffee eating hot cup cakes A She stares at him with his beard unshaved Wonders at his powers of staying awake
GA He whispers slowly: "you did just fine" DG They shared the driving all through the night A She laughs "my mother will have lost her mind" ... DG We're only ten miles to Gretna they're three hundred behind
D Moonlighting they're leaving everything A Moonlighting they're losing all their friends D Moonlighting it's the only way A It's frightening but it means they'll stay G Together they're gonna make it DA togetheee ... ... eer
