[ I said, "Oh my, what a marvelous tune
It was the best night,
never would forget how we moved
The whole place was dressed to the nines,
and we were dancing, dancing
Like we're made of starlight
Like we're made of starlight"
I met Bobby on the boardwalk,
summer of '45
Picked me up, late one night,
out the window
We were seventeen and crazy,
running wild, wild
Can't 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
I said, "Oh my, what a marvelous tune
It was the best night,
never would forget how we moved
The whole place was dressed to the nines,
and we were dancing dancing
Like we're made of starlight, starlight
Like we're made of starlight, starlight"
He said, "Look at you worrying so
much about things you can't change
You'll 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,
"Don't you see the starlight, starlight?
Don't you dream impossible things?"
Oh my, what a marvelous tune
It was the best night, never
would forget how we moved
The whole place was dressed to the nines,
and we were dancing, dancing
Like we're made of starlight, starlight
Like we're made of starlight, starlight
Ooh ooh he's talking crazy
Ooh ooh dancing with me
Ooh ooh we could get married
Have ten kids and teach them how to dream
Oh my, what a marvelous tune
It was the best night, never
would forget how we moved
The whole place was dressed to the nines,
and we were dancing, dancing
Like we're made of starlight, starlight
Like we're made of starlight, starlight
Like we're made of starlight, starlight
Like we dream impossible dreams
Like starlight, starlight
Like we dream impossible dreams
Don't you see the starlight starlight?
Don't you dream impossible things?]
