G G 
 
Sunlight comes creeping in
Illuminates our skin

We watch the day go by
Stories of all we did

It made me think of you
G G 
 
It made me think of you

G G 
 
Under a trillion stars
We danced on top of cars

Took pictures of the stage
So far from where we are

They made me think of you

They made me think of you

G G 
 
I'm in a foreign state
My thoughts they slip away

My words are leaving me
They caught an aeroplane

Because I thought of you

Just from the thought of you

We'd remember tonight
