I Saw You (Song)

I saw you there in the bright lights.
You simply took my breath away.
You may think you're just an average, ordinary Joe-blow,
But I think you are an angel with a halo over your head.
And now, I ask you to dance with me
Beneath the moonlight and the stars.
Why can't we just dance the night away?

I saw you, girl. I saw you.
I saw you and I liked what I did see.
I saw you, girl. I saw you.
I saw you, and you set my spirit free.

You said you were simply an Irish girl in an endless sea,
But I swore to you that you were wrong.
You then blushed, then chuckled, then flashed a brilliant grin,
And you warmed this ole boy's heart.
I may not be a painter or sculpter
Or a musician, you see,
But I can see an aesthetic moment when it's there before my eyes.

I saw you, girl. I saw you.
I saw you, and I liked what I did see.
I saw you, girl. I saw you.
I saw you, and you set my spirit free.

And we dance the night away,
Hands together in a sweet embrace;
It's a Kodak moment if there's ever been.
Words haven't been invented to describe this moment,
And believe me, I've been pondering this all evening,
So I guess I'll say this, that I love you,
A simple statement that rings true.

I saw you, girl. I saw you.
I saw you, and I liked what I did see.
I saw you, girl. I saw you.
I saw you, and you set my spirit free.
