Under the braw city night

And under the warm summer light

The evening begins

The day's been lightened with song

As glad as the winter is long

And so we begin



As far as the stars are from here

We'll travel together my dear

Wherever lovers may go

We'll step out into the good night



And into the farthest of hopes

And tied by the lightest of ropes

We'll sail away

And pulled by the sounds of the waves

And stories of heavenly places

We'll go on our way



As far as the stars are from here

We'll travel together my dear

Wherever lovers may go

We'll step out into the good night



I never even played you this song

Don't know that it might be wrong

You might never say

So let's do what lovers will do

Step out in the gathering rooms

And give love away



As far as the stars are from here

We'll travel together my dear

Wherever lovers may go

We'll step out into the good night
