Finest Night
Tom Franz and Pat Bazdarich
V1
Finest night I've ever seen
Was driving through the San Joaquin
Moon was up stars coming down
Summer heat was all around
V2
Not another car in sight
Country roads were ours that night
Rest your head upon my arm
Trust I'll keep you from all harm
C
And the sky
Looked like velvet
And the air
Felt like velour
And the sumps
Sparkled diamonds
And you were something pure
V3
Finest night I’ve ever known
Was the night we spent alone
On a Central Valley drive
That night was so alive
V4
It felt like we were free
Just like it was meant to be
We would always feel this way
If we could hold back the break of day
C
Bridge
Time would pass and we would find
This was temporary state of mind
Our love was caught in other nets
But there are things I just can’t forget
