Oh how I dream of summer nights
When you lay that old blanket out
The dewy grass of the football field
No lights are on, but you remember
Games lost and won on that field
Sitting in the stands and cheering
Those were the days of innocence
Days when you were free and naive
The band playing, crowd roaring
But now the field is empty and blank
No cheering students and parents
Nothing except for the two
On the old blanket in the dewy grass
Looking up at the stars
Remembering
Time lost and gained
The two of them laying
In the dewy grass of the field
Peaceful and reflecting

Oh how I dream of summer nights
When you lay that old blanket out
The dewy grass of the football field
No lights are on, but you remember
Games lost and won on that field
Sitting in the stands and cheering
Those were the days of innocence
Days when you were free and naive
The band playing, crowd roaring
But now the field is empty and blank
No cheering students and parents
Nothing except for the two
On the old blanket in the dewy grass
Looking up at the stars
Remembering
Time lost and gained
The two of them laying
In the dewy grass of the field
Peaceful and reflecting
