Lyrics For "When I First Saw You"

When I First Saw You

Written by: David R. G. Davies

Lyrics:

I knew when I first saw you Was it that glimmer in your eye Or that funny, crooked smile I knew when I first saw you That you were the only one for me Those skimpy dresses, funny floppy hats The sound of your sweet voice Caught me of me guard We were sipping champagne, or was it [?] On your neighbor's front lawn I never felt like this before And I knew when I first saw you Was it that glimmer in your eye Or that crooked, [?] smile I knew when I first saw you That you were the only one for me On that summer's day, as far as I could tell You didn't look so good, you didn't seem too well Like you were in a dream, off in some far distant land I could feel your pain, I could understand And I knew when I first saw you Was it that glimmer in your eye Or that funny, crooked smile I knew when I first saw you That you were the only one for me I took you to one side And held you oh so tight Your flimsy satin dress Fell so easily from your shoulders As we kissed, in the parting of your lips, I knew I knew when I first saw you Was it that glimmer in your eye Or that funny, crooked smile I knew when I first saw you That you were the only one for me
