[Intro – soft, spacious] Mhmm... [Whispered] Look up... [Verse 1] We left the lights behind us, where the roads became the sand. No walls around to hold us, just the night and your warm hand. A little fire beside us, a million lights above. And suddenly the silence feels like more than words enough. [Background Vocals: (Mhmm... ahhh...)] [Pre-Chorus] No place we have to be, no morning on our minds. Just you... just me... and all this endless sky. [Chorus – warm, opening wide] Sleeping under the stars... [Background Vocals: (Under the stars...)] nothing between us and the sky. Sleeping under the stars... watching the whole world pass us by. And if this night could last forever, I wouldn't ask it where we are. I'd just stay here beside you... [Pause] sleeping under the stars. [Background Vocals: (Ahhh... under the stars...)] [Verse 2] The fire is slowly fading, the air is getting cold. You move a little closer, and I don't need to be told. Somewhere an owl is calling, somewhere the night wind sighs. And every time I look at you, I see starlight in your eyes. [Pre-Chorus] No ceiling over us, no window to the night. Just you... just me... beneath a sea of light. [Chorus – fuller] Sleeping under the stars... [Background Vocals: (Under the stars...)] nothing between us and the sky. Sleeping under the stars... watching the whole world pass us by. And if this night could last forever, I wouldn't ask it where we are. I'd just stay here beside you... [Pause] sleeping under the stars. [Instrumental – spacious violin and flute] [Bridge – intimate] When morning finds us, the fire will be gone. The sky will lose its diamonds one by one before the dawn. But I'll remember lying here, your heartbeat next to mine... and how the whole wide universe felt ours for just one night. [Long pause] [Whispered] Stay... [Final Chorus – emotional, wide] Sleeping under the stars... [Background Vocals: (Under the stars...)] nothing between us and the sky. Sleeping under the stars... with your hand resting here in mine. Let tomorrow come and find us, let the morning travel far. Tonight there's only you and me... [Pause] sleeping under the stars. [Background Vocals: (Sleeping under the stars...)] [Final Refrain – softer] Sleeping under the stars... [Background Vocals: (Under the stars...)] Sleeping under the stars... [Whispered] Just you... and me... [Outro] Mhmm... [Whispered – almost breath] Under the stars...
