honey,

here i am on this perfect night
all dressed up and hoping i am doing right
reservations are made on a table for two
a corsage next to me waiting for you
i enter your house waiting to see
the beautiful woman going to prom with me
then you walk out of that little room
the lights seem to go out
the stars seem to zoom
your eyes seem to twinkle with a candle-like glow
your lips cherry red and your face white as snow
i wished at that time we didn't have to go
for i could spend the day just looking at you
and learning about the things that mean so much to you
though it saddens me i know we can't stay
we have to go dance the night away
well, we dance and dance
as the night goes on
dancing and singing to our favorite songs
we stop for a moment
and i see a tear in your eye
i kiss you on the cheek and say "baby, don't cry"
it's a special night and i know this is so
just because our time's up doesn't mean we have to go
we will go out in the street where there is no clock
and, honey, i promise we can dance til we drop
but until that time i hope you know
this is the best time i've had and will have i know
as we dance our last dance, there's only one thing to say
i love you in each and every way
