Lyrics

Starry night starry eyes
Caught in the midnight
You took me by surprise
In the Jeep in the middle of a field
Nothing but dew drops
Collecting on the windshield

Wind whipped air unbuttons your blouse
Naked bodies alert surrounded by no-one
And my palm moves across your back
Your body bends towards me
Our chests chill bumped by contact

And one cooler full of bottled beer
Sparkling in the moonlight
Sweat dripping down from your neck

As there we were
Eighteen years old
In the middle of nowhere
And my surprise
As you just smiled
And rested against the roll bar
For all the light in the night
I could see your magic

The radio broadcast lover’s songs
Dedications going out to such special ones
And all that echoed
Echoed from above
The endless night left to absorb
Yours and my groans

And all that gave us peace was electricity
Between our skin as we’d meet
Our bodies soaking

So why am I twenty-four years old
Thinking back smoking my cigarette
Sold that I will find a night like that again
Composed of dreams that have been
Thinking that life repeats itself
Wondering what memories are left

Starry night starry eyes
I drove you back home and kissed you goodnight
For all the times that we’d see each other since
It wasn’t until last year that I really missed
The feeling of you pressed so close to me
The times that we’d had and the memories
And you with a kid now and me with a degree
Still we’d come back to the source
The time when you and I were
