     Am
We strolled through fields all wet with rain
And back along the lane again
  Dm                 Am
There in the sunshine, in the sweet summertime
     E                    Am
The way that young lovers do

I kissed you on the lips once more
And we said goodbye just adoring the nighttime
Yeah, that's the right time
To feel the way that young lovers do

Chorus:
 C                  G
Then we sat on our own star and dreamed
        C                        F
Of the way that we were and the way that we
           E
wanted to be
 C                 G
Then we sat on our own star and dreamed
        C                  F                    E
Of the way that I was for you and you were for me

And then we danced the night away
And turned to each other, say,
I love you, I love you
The way that young lovers do

Chorus

And then we danced the night away
And turned to each other, say,
I love you, I love you
The way that young lovers do
