A Boy and a Girl

he holds her tight

as they sit on the bed of the truck

looking up at the stars 

without a care in the world

caught up in the moment

he gets up and turns the radio on 

and they slow dance all night long 

he said he loved her 

she said she loved him

he said he meant it

her eyes started to water and she held him closer

they saw a shooting star 

they made a wish

he asked if hers came true

she yes it has

you love me and mean it

she asked if his came true

he said yes

i know what it feels like to fall in love
