Wonderful Tonight, Eric Clapton, Song and Lyrics
Posted by webmasterWonderful Tonight
OK, I am on a ROLL today – so here is another of my Fav Songs — reminds me of someone very very special.
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight
On July 30, 1999, Eric Clapton put together a stellar band and invited a few friends–Bob Dylan, Sheryl Crow, Mary J. Blige, and David Sanborn–to perform a one-night-only concert in New York City’s Madison Square Garden as a benefit for Clapton’s Crossroads Centre at Antigua.
Wonderful Tonight
It’s late in the evening
She’s wondering what clothes to wear
She puts on her make up
And brushes her long blonde hair
And then she asks me
Do I look alright
And I say yes, you look wonderful tonight
We go to a party
And everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady
That’s walking around with me
And then she asks me
Do you feel alright
And I say yes, I feel wonderful tonight
I feel wonderful
Because I see the love light in your eyes
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don’t realize
How much I love you
It’s time to go home now
And I’ve got an aching head
So I give her the car keys
She helps me to bed
And then I tell her
As I turn out the light
I say my darling, you were wonderful tonight
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight
