The Lady In Red

Melodi: Chris de Burgh -                Tekst: Chris de Burgh

 

I've never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight,

I've never seen you shine so bright,

mm mm mm mm

I've never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance,

they're looking for at little romance,

given half a chance,

and I have never se en that dress you're wearing,

or the highlights in your hair that catch your eyes,

I have been blind.

The lady in red

is dancing with me,

cheek to cheek,

there's nobody here,

it's just you and me,

it's where I wanna be,

but I hardly know

this beauty by my side,

I'll never forget

the way you look tonight.

I never will forget

the way you look tonight.

 

I've never seen you looking so gargeous as you did tonight,

I've never seen you shine so bright,

you were amazing.

I've never seen so many people want to be there by your side,

and when you turned to me and smiled,

it to ok my breath away,

and I have never had such a feeling,

such a feeling of complete and utter love,

as I do tonight.

The lady in red ...
