[Verse]
Well, she was just 17
You know what I mean
And the way she looked was way beyond compare
So how could I dance with another (ooh)
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 (whooh)
When I saw her standing there

[Pre-Chorus]
Well, my heart went "boom"
When I crossed that room
And I held her hand in mine

[Chorus]
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 (whooh)
When I saw her standing there

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]
Oh, 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 (whooh)
Since I saw her standing there[x3]
