Oh What a Night

It was hot in summertime
And we were somewhere down in dirt road
With the stars shining bright
But they could not outshine you in that red cotton dress
Your hair, a southern mess and so beautiful
Yeah, so beautiful

Oh, what a night (what a night)
We all get one first time
You were so much more than good enough
It felt like we were fallin' in love (in love)
Let me say, oh, what a night
Yeah, what a night

You had your head on my chest
We were dancing in the headlights
Had a look in your eye
They say we're runni' from the sunlight
So we had to go there again
Before the night could end 'cause it was beautiful
So beautiful

Oh, what a night (what a night)
We all get one first time
You were so much more than good enough
It felt like we were fallin' in love (in love)
Let me say, oh, what a night

20 years, two kids and a lifetime later
You're the only love I've ever known
Every mornin' when I wake up, you're still turning me on
Like you lean over to me, and you whisper in my ear

Oh, what a night (what a night)
Oh, that's all right
You were so much more than good enough
Just like that very first time
Bon Jovi in the background
I could hear you breathing in and out
Y'all remember every little sound
Oh, what a night

Oh, what a night
Oh, won't you play?
Won't you play?
Won't you play it now?
