[Verse 1]
Old truck idling low by the gate
Paint peeled off like a secret kept late
You swung in laughing, boots in the dust
Said the moon looks mean, but it’s good for us
Horses out in the meadow grass
White tails flicking when the shadows pass
Down by the creek, the sycamores bend
And the night felt like it might not end
[Pre-Chorus]
Then a dark line rolled in from the west
Wind picked up in your faded dress
You looked at me like, stay with me now
And the sky leaned down
[Chorus]
Under the stars with you
Under the stars with you
Old truck, sweet rain, and a field in view
Under the stars with you
Under the stars with you
Heartbeats loud when the first drops flew
Farm lights glow and the creek runs blue
Under the stars with you
[Verse 2]
We parked there quiet by the split-rail fence
Hand-me-down seat and a little cracked glass
You drew one line through the dirt on my hand
Said every road turns soft when it knows this land
Rain hit the hood like a hundred small drums
The horses drifted where the wet grass runs
And I knew right then, in the brush of your hair
I’d take this storm and stay right there
[Pre-Chorus]
Then the thunder spoke far off and low
You leaned in close like you already know
If heaven’s got a doorway now
It feels like this somehow
[Chorus]
Under the stars with you
Under the stars with you
Old truck, sweet rain, and a field in view
Under the stars with you
Under the stars with you
Heartbeats loud when the first drops flew
Farm lights glow and the creek runs blue
Under the stars with you
[Bridge]
Rain on the windshield, silver and thin
Horses moving slow through the meadow again
You took my hand and the whole world stilled
Just sky, just ground, just the creek in the hill
[Final Chorus]
Under the stars with you
Under the stars with you
Old truck, sweet rain, and a field in view
Under the stars with you
Under the stars with you
Nothing else I’d rather do
Farm, creek, and a sky washed through
Under the stars with you
