Here on the hilltop where we fell in love
|
Many moons later, now we're giving up
|
I start the engine, you start to cry
|
It's a beautiful memory but a sad sad goodbye.
|
|
How many times have we wished on a star,
|
Wrapped up in a quilt on the hood of my car
|
We saw Halley's comet in lunar eclipse
|
And I sure saw heaven when I tasted your lips.
|
|
So blow out the stars, turn off the moon
|
Fade out the crickets and the nightingale's tune
|
Take down the magnolias that ride the soft wind
|
Another love story has come to an end
|
|
When our love was new as the first evening star
|
We both said I'll worship you just as you are
|
Then I tried to change you, girl, and I don't know why
|
You tried to change me, hey we might as well try.
|
|
To blow out the stars, turn off the moon
|
Fade out the crickets and the nightingale's tune
|
Take down the magnolias that ride the soft wind
|
Another love story has come to an end.
|
|
Take down the magnolias that ride the soft wind
