We go to a party and everyone turns to see
D C D C
This beautiful lady that's walking around with me.
D G Em
And then she asks me, "Do you feel all right?"
C D G
And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight."
C D
I feel wonderful because I see

The love light in your eyes.

And the wonder of it all
C G D C D
Is that you just don't realize how much I love you.

Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight."
