A beautiful scene
A real dream
A warm breeze
I love thee
The time and the place
Were in harmony
You entered my life
You found the key
Now it was in the stars
And we took the chance
There in the evening
We found romance
Beneath the city light
Our love shines so bright
I'll never forget those Monte Carlo nights
Those Monte Carlo nights

Dancing we were through the moonlight
Our feelings begin to grow
Spinning the wheels of fortune
We'll turn the dream to gold
You captured my heart and the mood was right
In the night we slippped away to paraadise
I've always remember how our love came to light
I'll never forget those Monte Carlo nights
Those Monte Carlo nights

Meeting you was
You fill my life with ecstasy
And every time that we embrace
I know no one could ever take your place
Oh I love this feeling I get inside
Oh what a feeling only you provide
Our love was meant to be
Our love was right
I'll never forget those Monte Carlo nights
Those Monte Carlo nights
Those Monte Carlo nights
Those Monte Carlo nights
Those Monte Carlo nights

You captured my heart and the mood was right
In the night we slippped away to paradise
Our love was meant to be
Our love was right
I'll never forget those Monte Carlo nights
Those Monte Carlo nights
Those Monte Carlo nights
Those Monte Carlo nights
Those Monte Carlo nights
