There was a moon out that night
And a fine little girl waiting for me...for me
With a thousand stars in the sky
She was saving the last dance for me...for me
And everyone needs a party doll
And I had one back then
Those 16 candles shed a lovely light
And I want that feeling again
While I was no duke of earl
And you were no queen of the hop
We discovered why fools fall in love
Dancing to that old romantic doo-wop
I only had eyes for you
One true love not some runaround Sue
Smoke gets in your eyes when thinking back
That little darlin' was me...me and you
While I was no duke of earl
And you were no queen of the hop
We discovered why fools fall in love
Dancing to that old romantic doo-wop
And maybe tonight, tonight might be the perfect time
To bring back those sweet corner harmonies
That still linger in our minds—in our minds
In the still of the night
I know that earth angels are real
As those sweet sounds come softly to me
Bringing back that romantic doo-wop feel
While I was no duke of earl
And you were no queen of the hop
We discovered why fools fall in love
Dancing to the old romantic doo-wop...dancing to that old romantic doo-wop
Come and dance with me to this old romantic doo-wop |
