I've been waiting for you all my life

And now that you are here I can't believe

How wonderful it is to be here by your side

To see you in the light

In your evening dress tonight

Every time I think you've gone away

There's only one thing left that's on my mind

And every time I think about your pretty face

My arms around you tight

In your evening dress tonight

In your evening dress tonight

Time after time, you've put up with me

Time after time, I've refused to see

Time after time, you're in misery

But what more can I do?

In your evening dress tonight

In your evening dress tonight

I've been thinking about you all day long

And now that you are here I can't believe

And now I know that I would give up everything

To see you in the light

In your evening dress tonight

(You take it all back then you throw it away)

In your evening dress tonight

(You take it all back then you throw it away)

In your evening dress tonight

(You take it all back then you throw it away)

(You take it all back then you throw it away)

In your evening dress tonight

(You take it all back then you throw it away)

(You take it all back then you throw it away)

In your evening dress tonight

(You take it all back then you throw it away)
