Question 1 of 1
1. Question
Fill in the blanks with the correct lyrics from the song.
-
It's late in the (evening); she's wondering what clothes to wear
She puts on her make-up and brushes her long blonde (hair)
And then she asks me, Do I look all right?
And I say, Yes, you look wonderful tonight
We go to a (party) and everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady that's (walking) around with me
And then she (asks) me, Do you feel all right?
And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight"
I feel wonderful because I see
The love light in your (eyes)
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize how much I (love) you
It's time to go (home) now and I've got an aching head
So I give her the car keys and she helps me to (bed)
And then I tell her, as I turn out the (light)
I say, "My darling, you were wonderful tonight
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight"
