On a Night Like Tonight
[BARNEY THOMPSON]
On a night like tonight, just remember you're right
Where you're meant to be
In a dazzling dress, I'm sure you'll impress
This I guarantee
He's certain to be enchanted by the magic of your smile
Anything's possible on a night like tonight
When you walk in the room, heads will turn, I presume
You'll have style and grace
A tango for two, picture him holding you
In a warm embrace
Dancing on air, without a care to your heart's delight
You'll be unstoppable

Now, you do know how to dance, don't you?
[VIVIAN, spoken]
Uh, yeah
[BARNEY THOMPSON, spoken]
No. No, no, no, no, no, not that kind of "dance". It's very elegant
[VIVIAN, spoken]
Oh, I feel sick, I'm gonna embarrass myself, I ca- I can't--
[BARNEY THOMPSON, spoken]
Don't worry. Fortunately, I used to be a professional ballroom dancer
[VIVIAN, spoken]
Really?
[BARNEY THOMPSON, spoken]
I still can, but on occasion. I'd be happy to show you a few pointers, if you like
[VIVIAN, spoken]
Uh, yeah
[BARNEY THOMPSON]
Remember, be true to yourself
It's easy to see
Hold your head high, this is who you're meant to be

Remember, you're a real lady
