[Chorus]
~#**************#~
I said, “Oh, my, what a marvelous tune”
~#**************#~
It was the best night, never would forget how he moved
~#**************#~
The whole place was dressed to the nines
~#**************#~
And we were dancing, dancing
~#**************#~
Like were made of starlight
~#**************#~
Like were made of starlight
~#**************#~
[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
I met Bobby on the boardwalk, summer of 45
~#**************#~
Picked me up, late one night out the window
~#**************#~
We were 17 and crazy, running wild, wild
~#**************#~
Cant remember what song it was playing when we walked in
~#**************#~
The night we snuck into a yacht club party
~#**************#~
Pretending to be a duchess and a prince
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
And I said, “Oh, my, what a marvelous tune”
~#**************#~
It was the best night, never would forget how he moved
~#**************#~
The whole place was dressed to the nines
~#**************#~
And we were dancing, dancing
~#**************#~
Like were made of starlight, starlight
~#**************#~
Like were made of starlight, starlight
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
He said, “Look at you, worrying too much about things you cant change
~#**************#~
Youll spend your whole life singing the blues if you keep thinking that way”
~#**************#~
He was trying to skip rocks on the ocean, saying to me
~#**************#~
“Dont you see the starlight, starlight?
~#**************#~
Dont you dream impossible things?”
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Like, “Oh, my, what a marvelous tune”
~#**************#~
It was the best night, never would forget how he moved
~#**************#~
The whole place was dressed to the nines
~#**************#~
And we were dancing, dancing
~#**************#~
Like were made of starlight, starlight
~#**************#~
Like were made of starlight, starlight
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
Ooh-ooh, hes talking crazy
~#**************#~
Ooh-ooh, dancing with me
~#**************#~
Ooh-ooh, we could get married
~#**************#~
Have ten kids and teach em how to dream
~#**************#~
[Guitar Solo]
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
Oh, my, what a marvelous tune
~#**************#~
It was the best night, never would forget how he moved
~#**************#~
The whole place was dressed to the nines
~#**************#~
And we were dancing, dancing
~#**************#~
Like were made of starlight, starlight
~#**************#~
Like were made of starlight, starlight
~#**************#~
[Breakdown]
~#**************#~
Like were made of starlight, starlight
~#**************#~
Like we dream impossible dreams
~#**************#~
Like starlight, starlight
~#**************#~
Like we dream impossible dreams
~#**************#~
[Outro]
~#**************#~
Dont you see the starlight, starlight?
~#**************#~
Dont you dream impossible things?
