Let your hair hang down
Wear your summer silk dress
With the Japanese flowers
Let’s make a night of today
Put some silver on your wrist
The pendant on your neck
Put my arm around your hips
Let’s make a night of today
We don’t need champagne
Or the food of the gods
We don’t need anything at all
Just the simple things we’ve got
So let’s make a night of today
I put on my suit and my favorite black shirt
I can hold your hand again
While we walk along the pier
It’s beautiful in summer
When the sun heats the stones
We can see forever on a day like this
It’s more than just a love
It’s more than just our time
It’s deeper than we can see
Let’s make a night of today
