Drifting, drifting, drifting, drifting
Young love underneath the stars baby
But the time went sailing by
Young love, young love
And I was drifting
Young love
And imagined I was yours and you were mine
Flush with heat of desire
Wrapped in the warm gentle breeze
On a natural high
As we lay upon the grass there in the dark
As we lay upon the grass
Young love, young love
Where no one could find
There in the dark
Young love, young love
And I was gently fading into you
You were fading into me
(Underneath the stars)
Weak in the knees
As I lost my heart to you
Beautiful and bittersweetly
Lay underneath the stars
There in the dark
(My own baby)
And left our secret place so far behind
As we drifted to another place in time
Underneath the stars
Underneath the stars
And we drifted to another state of mind
Reluctantly we said goodbye
Laughing, we hurried beneath the sky
And I mentioned I was yours and you were my own
(Underneath the stars)
And the feeling was so heady and sublime
Young love, young love
(Underneath the stars)
So shy, a bundle of butterflies
And I lay in bed all night
To an obscure place to hide
