Lyrics
Last night I started out happy
Last night my heart was so gay
Last night I found myself dancing
In my favorite cabaret
You were completely forgotten
Just an affair of the past
Then suddenly something happened to me
And I found my heart beating, oh, so fast
CHORUS
I saw you last night
And got that old feeling
When you came in sight
I got that old feeling
The moment that you danced by
I felt a thrill
And when you caught my eye
My heart stood still
Once again I seemed to feel that old yearning
And I knew the spark of love was still burning
There’ll be no new romance for me
It’s foolish to start
For that old feeling
Is still in my heart
Sung by Vancha March:
