The song describes romantic encounters between lovers in natural outdoor settings, set to a backdrop of a sparkling silver moon. It references kissing beside green grass and barley, dancing on a moonlit floor surrounded by fireflies, and following a trail on a father's map, all intimating an atmosphere of natural beauty and intimacy between partners under the night sky.

Nightly, beside the green, green grass Swing, swing, swing the spinning step You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress.
[Chorus:] Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight Lead me out on the moonlit floor Lift your open hand Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance Silver moons sparkling So kiss me
Kiss me down by the broken tree house Swing me upon its hanging tire Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat Well take the trail marked on your fathers map
[Chorus (repeat)] Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight Lead me out on the moonlit floor Lift your open hand Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance Silver moons sparkling So kiss me
