The summer night
The fading light
The perfect place
The perfect time
To take you somewhere we both want to go

A starry drive
In mid July
Park the car 
Turn off the lights
And venture through a field out on our own

The birds they sang a melody
My heart was keeping time and we were dancing on the edge of something new
Slow at first but still it seems
That we'll go down in history as lovers from the start, just me and you

I've spent a thousand nights
Lost in your emerald eyes
Lost in a place where I know you can see my soul

Make me lose track of time
You and your emerald eyes
Finally found a place that I can call my home

A subtle breeze
It's you and me
Chest to chest
No in between
And every moment's better than the last

Anything and everything
That I could ever want and need
Is standing right beside me in the grass

The birds they sang a melody
My heart was keeping time and we were dancing on the edge of something new
Slow at first but still it seems
That we'll go down in history as lovers from the start, just me and you

'Cause I've spent a thousand nights
Lost in your emerald eyes
Lost in a place where I know you can see my soul

Make me lose track of time
You and your emerald eyes
Finally found a place that I can call my home

I've spent a thousand nights
Lost in your emerald eyes
Lost in a place where I know you can see my soul

Make me lose track of time
You and your emerald eyes
Finally found a place that I can call my home
