The first time we touched,
I liked it so much 
The first time we smiled,
My heart went wild 

And it was, boy oh boy 
One night with you, and it's 
Boy oh boy 
What I could do with you 
It was too much 
Well oh boy the first time we touched 

The first time we danced 
It was romance 
I walked you home 
And we were alone again 

Boy oh boy 
One night with you, and it's 
Boy oh boy 
What I could do with you 
It was romance 
When oh boy the first time we danced 

You came closer and closer 
You put your head on my shoulder 
And when the night it was over 
I walked you home 
And we were alone again
