[Repeat melody for Verse 2:]
We go to a party, and everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady, who’s walking around with me
And then she asks me, “Do you feel alright?”
And I say, “Yes, I feel wonderful tonight.”

I feel wonderful because I see the love light in your eyes

And the wonder of it all is that you just don’t realise

How much I love you.
[Repeat melody for Verse 3:]
It’s time to go home now, and I’ve got an achin’ head
So I give her the car keys and she helps me to bed
And then I tell her, as I turn out the light
I say, “My darling, you were wonderful tonight.”
