Lyrics

1. Something strange happened to me
Lost my heart so suddenly
Suddenly I found myself in a dream
One sweet kiss did it to me
I got dizzy instantly
But something stranger happened
Strange as it seems

Chorus:
I saw stars
I heard a birdie sing so sweet, so sweet
The moment I fell for you
I saw stars
I heard an angel say, “Wake up! wake up!”
Your wonderful dream came true
A newborn feeling had me reeling
I said to myself, “Where am I”
It’s all so hazy, may sound crazy
There wasn’t a star in the sky, still
I saw stars
I heard a birdie sing so sweet, so sweet
The moment I fell for you

2. Never knew what love could do
Never knew ’til I met you
Now I thank my stars that you came along
Your sweet smile opened my eyes
Showed the way to paradise and
Now my heart is lighter filled with a song
