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
And I saw her standin' 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
And I saw her standin' there.

Well, my heart went boom,
When I crossed that room,
And I held her hand in mine...
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
Since I saw her standing there

Since I saw her standing there...
Since I saw her standing there...
