The Moon, The Stars, And Us
Next to the old broken down bus
out in the woods with the football field in sight
there were the distant sounds of the crowd on Friday night,
but where we were
it was just the moon, the stars, and us.
We told our parents we were going to the game
but we knew where we were going just the same
we held hands as we walked,
under the beauty of the nights sky, we talked.
What a beautiful time it was,
just the moon, the stars, and us.
We danced to the romance of young love in the evening air
with tender kisses deliciously shared
our feet in rhythm, our bodies swaying to each others touch,
we were flying so high in love
what a rush!
Just the moon, the stars, and us.
I saw love when I looked into her eyes that night
feeling love with her arms wrapped around me so tight.
I knew love that night under the moon
feeling love that evening beneath the stars
and what a beautiful love it was,
that night it was just us.
