Well, she was just
Well, she was just seventeen
And you know what I mean
And the way she looked was way beyond compare
So, how could I dance with another
When I saw her standing there

Well, she looked at me
And I, I could see
That before too long I'd fall in love with her
She wouldn't dance with another
When I saw her standing there

Well, my heart went boom
When I crossed that room
And I held her hand in mine

Well, we danced through the night
And we held each other tight
And before too long, I fell in love with her
Now I'll never dance with another
Since I saw her standing there

Well, she was just seventeen
And I know what you mean
And the way she looked was way beyond compare
So how could I dance with another
When I saw her standing there

Well, she looked at me
And I, I could see
That before too long, I'd fall in love with her
She wouldn't dance with another
When I saw her standing there
