Wonderful Tonight

Wonderful Tonight

Eric Clapton (#16 in 1978)

It's late in the evening
She's wondering what clothes to wear
She puts on her make up
And brushes her long blonde hair

And then she asks me
"Do I look alright?"
And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight"

We go to a party
And everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady
That's walking around with me

And then she asks me
"Do you feel alright?"
And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight"

I feel wonderful
Because I see the love light in your eyes
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize how much I love you

It's time to go home now
And I've got an aching head
So I give her the car keys
And she helps me to bed

And then I tell her
As I turn out the light
I said, "My darling, you are wonderful tonight"
Oh my darling, you are wonderful tonight
