Lady in Red

I've never seen you looking so lovely as you did tonight
I've never seen you shine so bright
I've never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance
looking for a little romance given have the chance

I have never seen that dress your wearing
or the highlights in your hair they catch your eyes
i have been blind

Lady in red is dancing with me.. ( cheek to cheek )
Theres nobody here its just you and me
its were i wanna be
I hardly know this beauty by my side
I'll never forget the way you looked tonight

I've never seen you looking so gorgeous as you did tonight
I've never seen you shine so bright..you were amazing
I've never seen so many people wanting to be there by your side
and when you turned to me and smiled you took my breathe away

i've never had such a feeling such a feeling of complete and utter love
as i do tonight

Lady in red is dancing with me ( cheek to cheek )
Theres nobody here just you and me
its wear i wanna be
I hardly know this beauty by my side
i'll never forget the way you looked tonight
