The Night She Fell In Love

The Night She Fell In Love 
It was a warm summer night 
and she was walking along the shore. 
The moon was full and shining bright;
she couldn’t have asked for more.  
This was the summer night 
when she fell in love. 
With the moon shining bright
from its place high above. 

As she walked along the sand, 
she gazed up at the stars.  
Music floated from a nearby band
that was playing in one of the outdoor bars.
This was the summer night 
when she fell in love. 
With the moon shining bright
from its place high above. 

Oblivious to her surroundings, 
she bumped into a young man. 
Her heart began pounding
and she got up and ran. 
This was the summer night 
when she fell in love. 
With the moon shining bright 
from its place high above. 

Her palms began to sweat, 
and she was breathing hard. 
That man had been no threat, 
but she let down her guard. 
This was the summer night 
when she fell in love. 
With the moon shining bright
from its place high above. 

Her mind kept straying 
back to that young man. 
Her skirt began swaying 
just as a summer breeze began. 
This was the summer night 
when she fell in love. 
With the moon shining bright
from its place high above. 

She began to ponder
why she liked that young stranger.
It was some wonder 
that she sensed no danger. 
This was the summer night 
when she fell in love. 
With the moon shining bright 
from its place high above. 

Turning around, her heart began to flutter. 
The handsome lad
was standing in front of her. 
She suddenly felt glad. 
This was the summer night 
when she fell in love. 
With the moon shining bright 
from its place high above. 

They talked for a while
talking in a friendly way.
After they had walked a mile, 
they promised to meet the next day. 
This was the summer night 
when she fell in love. 
With the moon shining bright 
from its place high above. 

It was a night to remember 
because of its importance. 
She will forever treasure
their very first dance. 
This was the summer night 
when she fell in love. 
With the moon shining bright 
from its place high above.
