The Night We Met
Dan Hill · I'm Doing Fine [2007]
I can still remember what you wore.
I had the strangest feeling like we'd met before.
Maybe it was something that you said.
How can I forget the night we met?
How can I forget when we first touched?
Never thought that I would want someone so much.
I looked in your eyes and then I knew for sure
You would be my love forevermore.
As you slept, I kept thinking of the night we met.
Memories come and go like a dream lost in the night,
But I remember everything about you,
How you came and changed my life.
And how can I forget those wedding bells?
You looked like an angel, I remember well
How we danced all night and never touched the ground.
How can I forget the night we met?
Memories come and go like a dream lost in the night,
But I remember everything about you,
How you came and changed my life.
How can I forget your greatest gift?
I swore I saw your eyes when I first looked at his,
And when you cried, the tears were falling from my eyes
As I held our baby, held on to his first breath.
How can I forget the first night that we met?
And how can I forget that night?
How can I forget the night we met
