D                        A
Maybe tonight I'm gonna tell him how I feel
D                              A
Maybe I'll leave well enough alone
Bm           A            D     D/F#    G
Maybe, just maybe, he'll want to be my baby
G    D/F#         Em   D      A   G
What if he's got plans of his own

I'm waiting for the perfect moment
Looking for the perfect phrase
The one I finally choose is simply "I love you"
As the words came out, I heard a voice
inside me say

Chorus:
               D
What made you say that
            G                      A
Was it the moonlight, was it the starlight
in your eyes
               D
What made you say that
               G                 A
Have you been listening to your heart
Bm             A              D       D/F#    G  A
It's too late now, you don't want to take it back
 Bm           A                        D
Cause I know love's what made you say that

I look up to see his reaction
And a smile slowly spread across his face
He said, "What took you so long?
That's what I've been waiting on
I thought you'd take forever and a day"

Chorus:
What made you say that?
Was it the moonlight? Was it the starlight
in your eyes?
What made you say that?
Have you been listening to your heart?
It's too late now, I won't let you take it back
'Cause I know love's what made you say that

What made you say that?
Was it the moonlight? Was it the starlight
in your eyes?
What made you say that?
Have you been listening to your heart?
It's too late now, you don't wanna take it back
'Cause I know love's what made you say that

Was it the moonlight? Was it the starlight in your
eyes?
What made you say that?
Have you been listening to your heart?
What made you say that?
Oh, what made you say that?
What made you say that?
Was it the moonlight? Was it the starlight in your
eyes?
What made you say that?
Have you been listening to your heart?
