Here on the hilltop where we fell in love
A                      E             A
Many moons later, now we're giving up.
A                         D          A
I start the engine, girl, you start to cry,
A                             E             A
it's a beautiful memory but a sad sad goodbye.

How many times have we wished on a star,

Wrapped up in a quilt on the hood of my car?

We saw Halley’s comet and a lunar eclipse

And I sure saw heaven when I tasted your lips.
