I was still young when I first met you,
You looked so good with a scarf ’round your neck.
You’re from a different land, speak a language
I can’t understand,
But deep down I know I’m just like you.

I don’t know if I’ll ever see you again, 
But I don’t care as long as you hold my hand,
And I can tell by the look in your eyes,
That you feel exactly the same. 

I don’t know your name
Or what to say,
But that’s not important,
‘Cause I know we’re the same
Under the trees,
The stars above us.
We don’t have to speak,
‘Cause you’re the scout that I love. 

Sitting with you around our campfire,
Everybody’s asleep but we won’t get tired,
‘Cause I play my guitar and I sing you a song,
Again and again all night long.

The day was dawning when you fell asleep,
On my shoulders, while I watched you dream.
I know that tomorrow, tomorrow you’ll be gone,
But I remember you when I sing my song.

I don’t know your name
Or what to say,
But that’s not important,
‘Cause I know we’re the same
Under the trees,
The stars above us.
We don’t have to speak,
‘Cause you’re the scout that I love. 

Sometimes I think of you,
And imagine what you’ve become.
I hope to see you soon,
And that you’ll remember my song.

I don’t know your name
Or what to say,
But that’s not important,
‘Cause I know we’re the same
Under the trees,
The stars above us.
We don’t have to speak,
‘Cause you’re the scout that I love. 
We don’t have to speak,
‘Cause you’re the scout that I love.
We don’t have to speak
