Well, she was just 17,

You know what i mean,

And the way she looked was way beyond compare.

So how could i dance with another (ooh)

And i saw her standin' there.

Well she looked at me, and i, i could see

That before too long i'd fall in love with her.

She wouldn't dance with another (whooh)

And i saw her standin' there.

Well, my heart went "boom,"

When i crossed that room,

And i held her hand in mine...

Whoah, we danced through the night,

And we held each other tight,

And before too long i fell in love with her.

Now i'll never dance with another (whooh)

Since i saw her standing there
