[Chorus]
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
[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
Can't remember what song was playing when we walked in
The night we snuck into a yacht club party
Pretending to be a duchess and a prince
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
He said, "Look at you
Worrying too 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?
Don't you see impossible things?"
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
Ooh, ooh, he’s talking crazy
Ooh, ooh, dancing with me
Ooh, ooh, we could get married
Have ten kids and teach ’em how to dream
Ooh-ooh
[Chorus]
Oh, my, what a marvelous tune (Ooh-ooh)
It was the best night, never would forget how we moved (Ooh-ooh)
The whole place was dressed to the nines (Ooh-ooh)
And we were dancing, dancing
Like we're made of starlight, starlight
[Breakdown]
(Oh, my, what a marvelous tune)
Like we’re made of starlight, starlight
(It was the best night, never would forget how we moved)
Like we dream impossible dreams
(The whole place was dressed to the nines)
Don't you see the starlight, starlight?
(And we were dancing, dancing)
Don't you dream impossible things?
(Like we're made of starlight, starlight)
[Outro]
Like we’re made of starlight, starlight
Like we dream impossible dreams
Don't you see the starlight, starlight?
Don't you dream impossible things?
