Amanda Laughman

The Best Night Of All

inspired by "To An Athlete Dying Young" by A. E. Housman

That night, that time, the best of all
And to think that I could ever fall
In love with one as good as you
I’d been waiting my whole life through
 
 
For this moment, this starry night
Two of us under sparkling light
Letting our troubles fall away
Leaving me with nothing to say
 
 
Just let me stay here forever
I don’t want to leave, not ever
I’d hate to take you home tonight
Don’t want to end this, the best night

it's about homecoming, of course
dedicated with love to my wonderful boyfriend
