Well, she was just 17
And you know what I mean
And the way she looked
Was way beyond compare
So how could I dance with another, oh
When I saw her standing 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, oh
When I saw her standing there

Well, my heart went "boom"
When I crossed that room
And I held her hand in mine

Well, 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, oh
And I saw her standing there
Yes, I saw her standing there
