Verse:

There's an interlude in my young life,
That reads just like a play;
There's a little secret in my heart,
That I have put away.
But the mem'ry lingers long,
Like an unforgotten song;

Chorus 1:

We took a stolen holiday together,
There was a new moon above;
In the dark we lost our way together,
We stumbled over flowers,
Under stars, and tumbled into love.
There was a stolen kiss so warm and tender,
You didn't have much to say;
But, in your eyes I saw surrender
On that night we stole away
For a stolen holiday.

Chorus 2:

We took a stolen holiday together,
There was a new moon above;
In the dark we lost our way together,
We stumbled over flowers,
Under stars, and tumbled into love.
There was a stolen kiss so warm and tender,
There wasn't much I could say;
But, in my eyes you saw surrender
On that night we stole away
For a stolen holiday.
