Moonlight's bright tonight.
Let's go outside and play.
We can run until dawn.
Morning's still far away.

Embrace the lingering warmth
From the setting of the sun.
Streets grant one true path.
Night calls our return.

In silence the river washed
Our dreams from the shore.
Shiny speckles of sand
Are ours no more.

We’re left vacant and empty
With no pathway home,
Yet the streets keep calling,
Calling our return.

The nights will restore
What we knew in the streets,
But lost from our lives
In many years since.

New challenges we’ll face
With joy and with grief.
Head-on and direct,
Reclaim our belief.

Come share the night,
And the life we must lead
In the streets of the city
Where we can be free.

Moonlight's bright tonight.
Let's go outside and play,
In the streets of the city.
Morning's still far away.
Years have passed since parts one and two.  Our couple has grown complacent in their life, comfortable with their routine.  Life has lost its luster and meaning.

They realize that by taking on fresh challenges, they can reclaim the excitement and meaning in their lives.  The time to act is now.  Take some risks and grow as individuals and as a couple
