I said, "Oh my, what a marvelous tune"

It was the best night, never would forget how we moved.

The whole place was dressed to the nines,

And we were dancing, dancing

Like we're made of starlight

Like we're made of starlight

I met Bobby on the boardwalk, summer of '45

Picked me up late one night at the window,

We were 17 and crazy, running wild, wild

Can't remember what song he was playing when we walked in

The night we snuck into a yacht club party

Pretending to be a duchess and a prince

And I said, "Oh my, what a marvelous tune"

It was the best night, never would forget how we moved.

The whole place was dressed to the nines,

And we were dancing, dancing

Like we're made of starlight, starlight

Like we're made of starlight, starlight

He said, "Look at you, worrying so much about things you can't change

You'll spend your whole life singing the blues if you keep thinking that way"

He was trying to skip rocks on the ocean, saying to me,

"Don't you see the starlight, starlight?

Don't you dream impossible things?"

Like "Oh my, what a marvelous tune"

It was the best night, never would forget how we moved

The whole place was dressed to the nines,

And we were dancing, dancing

Like we're made of starlight, starlight

Like we're made of starlight, starlight

Ooh ooh he's talking crazy

Ooh ooh dancing with me

Ooh ooh we could get married

Have ten kids and teach them how to dream

Oh my, what a marvelous tune

It was the best night, never would forget how we moved

The whole place was dressed to the nines,

And we were dancing, dancing

Like we're made of starlight, starlight

Like we're made of starlight, starlight

Like we're made of starlight, starlight

Like we dream impossible dreams

Like starlight, starlight

Like we dream impossible dreams

Don't you see the starlight, starlight?

Don't you dream impossible things?

(Terjemahan)

Kubilang astaga, nada yang sungguh indah

Itu adalah malam terbaik, takkan terlupa bagaimana kita bergerak

Orang-orang di tempat ini berpakaian sempurna, dan kita berdansa, berdansa

Seolah kita tercipta dari kilau bintang

Seolah kita tercipta dari kilau bintang

Aku bertemu Bobby di boardwalk*, musim panas tahun '45

Dia menjemputku, di tengah malam di jendelaku

Umurnya 17, dan dia gila, berlarian liar

Aku tak ingat lagu apa yang sedang dimainkan

Di malam saat kita menyelinap di pesta kapal pesiar

Berpura-pura menjadi istri bangsawan dan pangeran

Kubilang astaga, nada yang sungguh indah

Itu adalah malam terbaik, takkan terlupa bagaimana kita bergerak

Orang-orang di tempat ini berpakaian sempurna, dan kita berdansa, berdansa

Seolah kita tercipta dari kilau bintang

Seolah kita tercipta dari kilau bintang

Dia bilang, lihat dirimu, khawatir berlebihan tentang sesuatu yang tak bisa kau ubah

Kau akan menjalani seumur hidupmu menyanyikan lagu blues bila kau terus berpikir seperti itu

Dia sedang melompat melewati bebatuan di pantai saat berkata padaku

Apa kau tak melihat kilau bintang?

Apa kau tak memimpikan hal-hal yang mustahil?

Kubilang astaga, nada yang sungguh indah

Itu adalah malam terbaik, takkan terlupa bagaimana kita bergerak

Orang-orang di tempat ini berpakaian sempurna, dan kita berdansa, berdansa

Seolah kita tercipta dari kilau bintang

Seolah kita tercipta dari kilau bintang

Ooooooooh dia bicara gila

Ooooooooh berdansa bersamaku

Ooooooooh kita bisa menikah

Punya sepuluh anak dan mengajari mereka cara bermimpi

Kubilang astaga, nada yang sungguh indah

Itu adalah malam terbaik, takkan terlupa bagaimana kita bergerak

Orang-orang di tempat ini berpakaian sempurna, dan kita berdansa, berdansa

Seolah kita tercipta dari kilau bintang

Seolah kita tercipta dari kilau bintang

Seperti kita memimpikan yang mustahil dimimpikan

Bagai kilau bintang

Seperti kita memimpikan yang mustahil dimimpikan

Apa tak melihat kilau bintang

Apa kau tak memimpikan yang mustahil dimimpikan
