It’s a Saturday night
And the sun is going down
There are some lonely hearts
Left in this town
Everybody’s going out
Neighbors are talking about
That starlit summer night
I’m inviting some friends
For a tasty barbeque
Just bring a bottle of wine
And take your family with you
I was missing you my dear
It’s great to see you here
Take a seat in the garden
And we watch the children playing
In the darkness of the night
While we’re sitting on the bench
And enjoy the candle light
The music’s playing in the background
We listen to a good old country song
I take a deep breath
Alone I’m singing along
Two boys are taking their guitars
They start singing with me
There’s no place on earth
I would rather be than here
We are talking together
While we’re eating spicy food
We are drinking sweet wine
And we’re feeling good
We’re spending time on joking
And too much smoking
It is a crazy night
And we watch the children playing
In the darkness of the night
While we’re sitting on the bench
And enjoy the candle light
The music’s playing in the background
We listen to a good old country song
I take a deep breath
Alone I’m singing along
Two boys are taking their guitars
They start singing with me
Straight into our hearts
Runs this affecting melody
We are playing all night long
And we’re really having fun
There’s magic in the air
There’s no place on earth
I would rather be than here
Rather be than here
