Lyrics
VERSE
When I first laid eyes on you, to myself I just said "wow"
It was hard to believe I was in the here and now
But there you were lookin' so fine, dressed fit to kill
My heart went uptown, downtown, everywhere else, even over the hill
VERSE
When I first spoke to you, I could not believe my ears
There I was saying words with no hint of fear
Then when you agreed to go out with me on a date
I came callin' early; I could not wait
PRE-CHORUS
So here we are in some old crowded bar
Now if I might, if I may, I have something to say
CHORUS
I just cannot wait 'til you're with me alone
Just you and me; I can't get you out of my mind
You're the woman I thought I'd never find
Just when I thought love had left me behind
Now I just cannot wait 'til you're with me alone
VERSE
When it's just you and me, I'll touch your tender lips
And kiss every one of your sensuous fingertips
I'll do everything I can, oh, to make you see
That you should go on second date with me
Repeat CHORUS
SOLO
Repeat CHORUS
TAG
Then I'll be looking forward to date numbers 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
