I Saw Her Standing There

Well, she was just
Well, she was just
Well, she was just

Well, she was just 17, you know what I mean
And the way she looked, ooh, way beyond compare, oh, yes
You know I never danced with another, ooh
When I saw her standing there, yeah

Now, she looked at me, you know I just couldn't see
But before too long, I feel in love with her, oh, yes
You know I never danced with another, ooh
When I saw her standing there, yeah

Well, my heart went boom when I crossed that room
When I held her hands, hands in mine, ooh

Oh, we danced through the night and we held each other tight
But before too long, I feel in love with her, oh, yes
You know I never danced with another, ooh
When I saw her standing there, yeah

Well, my heart went boom when I crossed that room
When I held her hands, hands in mine, ooh

Oh, we danced through the night and we held each other tight
But before too long, I feel in love with her, oh, yes
You know I never danced with another, ooh
When I saw her standing there, oh yes

I saw her standing there
A pretty little girl, she's standing there
Just sweet 16, she's standing there
She's 17, she's standing there

She may be black, Lord, she's standing there
She may be white, yeah, she's standing there
She may be brown, she's standing there
She may be yellow, she's standing there

She's standing there, Lord, standing there
I gotta, gotta stand, gonna stand there
She's standing there, so sweet
She's oh, so sweet, so sweet
