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
