Was it only last night
When he looked into my eyes
And was it only last night
When he made me realize
I have been away from him
Without knowing him
Until last night when
He lead me away
Until last night when
He showed me the way
My life was just an
Empty place
Until last night I
Saw his face
Was it only last night
That he asked to dance
With me
And was it only last night
That I held him close to me
I have known the touch
Of love without feeling low
Until last night when
He lead me away
Until last night when
He showed me the way
My life was just an
Empty place
Until last night I
Saw his face
Was it only last night
That my heart began to bleed
And was it only last night
That he laid it at my feet
Was it only last night
Only last night
Was it only last night
