Wonderful Tonight

 

It's late in the evening; she's wondering² what clothes to wear.
She puts on her make-up and brushes her long blonde³ hair.
And then she asks me, "Do I look all right?"
And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight."
We go a party and everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady that's walking around with me.
And then she asks me, "Do you feel all right?"
And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight."
I feel wonderful because I see
The love light in your eyes.
And the wonder¹ of it all
Is that you just don't realize⁵ how much I love you.
It's time to go home now and I've got⁶ an aching⁷ head,
So I give her the car keys and she helps me to bed.
And then I tell her, as⁴ I turn out the light,
I say, "My darling⁸, you were wonderful tonight.
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight."
