17 (i saw her standing there)

well she was just 17
you know what i mean
and the way she looked
was way beyond compare
so how could i dance with another
and i saw her standin' there

well she looked at me... and i, i could see
that before too long i'd fall in love with her.
she wouldn't dance with another
i'd i saw her standin' there.

well, my heart went boom,
when i crossed that room,
and i held her hand in mine

whoah, we danced through the night,
and we held each other tight,
and before too long i fell in love with her.
now i'll never dance with another
since i saw her standing there
