Mm-hmm. I've never seen so many men ask you if you wanted to dance. They're looking for a little romance. Give them her chance. And I have never seen them dress for you. All the highlights in your hair would catch your gaze. I have been blind. The lady in red. Is dancing with me. There's nobody here. It's just you and me. Where I want to be, but I hardly know. This beauty by my side. I'll never forget the way you looked tonight. I've never seen you looking so gorgeous as you did tonight. Never seen you shine so bright. You were looking Cheek to cheek. Nobody. It's where I want to be, where I've been. This beauty by my side, yes, I'll never forget. The way you look tonight, it never will fall. The way you look tonight, lady in red, the lady in red. My baby, I love
you. Je
t'aime. Tu sais pas, je l'ai vécu.
I love you.
