Stole the keys to my daddy's ride and I took my baby for a midnight drive
Our hearts were racing as we headed down Highway 9
Oh we didn't have no lover's lane but that old back road worked just the same
It wasn't long till I knew deep inside

This must be what they're talkin' about
When you find the one you can't live without
Somewhere deep in the night I saw the light oh her love got a hold of me
Left no doubt this must be what they're talkin' about

I read about it in the magazines I'd even seen it on the movie screen
Heard 'em sing about it in a million songs
I never really understood till we lit that fire that night in the woods
Started a love that still burns just as strong

This must be what they're talkin' about...

Somewhere deep in the night...
(This must be) what they're talkin' about
This must be what they're talkin' about
This must be what they're talkin' about
