This is a very old song, but for some reason, it keeps hovering my mind, in every step that I take.

Wonderful Tonight

It’s late in the evening
she’s wondering what clothes to wear.
She puts on her make-up and brushes her long blonde hair.
And then she asks me, “Do I look alright?”
And I say, “Yes, you look wonderful tonight.”

We go to a party
and everyone turns to see
this beautiful lady that’s walking around with me.
And then she asks me, “Do you feel alright?”
And I say, “Yes, I feel wonderful tonight.”

I feel wonderful because I see
the love light in your eyes
And the wonder of it all
is that you just don’t realize how much I love you.

It’s time to go home now
and I’ve got an aching head
So I give her the car keys and she helps me to bed.
And then I tell her, as I turn out the light
I say, “My darling, you are wonderful tonight
Oh my darling, you are wonderful tonight.”
