LYRICS

When you looked into my eyes

I stood there like I was hypnotised

You sent a feeling to my spine

A feeling warm and smooth and fine

But all I could do was stand there paralyzed

When we kissed, ooh, what a thrill

You took my hand and, ooh baby, what a chill

I felt like grabbin' you real tight

Squeeze and squeeze with all my might

All I could do was stand there paralyzed

Oh yeah lucky me, I'm singing ev'ry day, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ever since the day you came my way, ooh-ooh-ooh

You made my life for me, just one big happy game

I'm gay ev'ry morning, at night I'm still the same

Oh well, do you remember that wonderful time

When you held my hand and swore that you'd be mine?

In front of a preacher you said 'I do'

I couldn't say a word for thinking of you

All I could do was stand there paralyzed

Oh lucky me, I'm singing ev'ry day, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ever since the day you came my way, ooh-ooh-ooh

You made my life for me, just one big happy game

I'm gay ev'ry morning, at night I'm still the same

Do you remember that wonderful time

When you held my hand and swore that you'd be mine?

In front of the preacher you said 'I do'

I couldn't say a word for thinking of you

All I could do was stand there paralyzed

All I could do was stand there paralyzed
