She was just seventeen

And you know what I mean

And the way she looked was way beyond compare

I couldn't dance with another

When I saw her standing there



Well she looked at me

and I could see

That before too long I fell in love with her

I couldn't dance with another

When I saw here standing there



Well my heart went boom

As I crossed that room

And I held her hand in mine



Oh we danced through the night

And we held each other tight

And before too long I feel in love with her

I couldn't dance with another

When I saw here standing there
