I did a couple of 15 minute lyric challenge with Deej. This is a further 15 minute write with one change.
That I challenged myself to write

Starlight Stella
V
She was on the beach dancing in the moonlight
fire blazed, bottles raised, some were high as a kite.
So I took the chance, began to dance, slicing sand
She held out her arm, and I took hold of her hand

C
Starlight Stella, when tonight's over we won't part
Starlight Stella, this drunken fellah
is going headlong for your heart.
We danced till we dropped, the music stopped
Is that the sun in the sky?
Me and Starlight Stella are still together
as the years have flown by.

B
As our boat rocked to that motion on the ocean
It set a twinkle in her eyes
She said, let's dance, add a bit of romance
Under this cloudless sky
We headed further towards the sun
and when the day was done
We dropped anchor then slept on the deck
till a new day begun,

Repeat v1

C

Thought I'd gone dyslexic, Stella by starlight came to mind.

Sounds like a good start.

I once broke a girls wrist at a wedding. I grabbed her hand and pulled her on the floor and broke her wrist. Needless to say I was on watch for a long time after that.

Thanks Fde
Hope it wasn't the brides wrist, a girl needs both wrists on a wedding night!
Thanks for the read and comnents

Hi Travis,

When I saw "Starlight Stella," I was thinking she'd be on a beach!

Regarding logistics ... they are on the beach in the beginning, but then they end up in a boat. It's the ocean, so it's not very easy to get from the beach to a boat in the ocean. And, if they're all alone on a boat in the ocean, and drunk ... hmmmm. Maybe as their "bodies rocked" to the motion of the ocean (still on the beach). And then maybe they can drop down in the sand and sleep?

Hi Travis,
You could also give a second verse with him leading her to the boat etc., like V1,C,V2,C,B, C, outro...

Hi Lisa and John
