[English]

I WAS ENCHANTED TO MEET YOU

I'LL SPEND FOREVER WONDERIN' IF YOU KNEW

I'M WONDERSTRUCK, DANCING AROUND ALL ALONE

THIS NIGHT IS FLAWLESS, DON'T YOU LET IT GO

I'LL SPEND FOREVER WONDERIN' IF YOU KNEW

I'M WONDERSTRUCK, BLUSHIN' ALL THE WAY HOME

THIS NIGHT IS SPARKLIN', DON'T YOU LET IT GO

PLEASE, DON'T HAVE SOMEBODY WAITIN' ON YOU

PLEASE, DON'T BE IN LOVE WITH SOMEONE ELSE

PLEASE, DON'T HAVE SOMEBODY WAITIN' ON YOU

PLEASE, DON'T BE IN LOVE WITH SOMEONE ELSE

I WAS ENCHANTED TO MEET YOU

AS I WAS LEAVING TOO SOON

THESE ARE THE WORDS I HELD BACK

UNTIL I SEE YOU AGAIN

MY THOUGHTS WILL ECHO YOUR NAME

NOT WHERE THE STORYLINE ENDS

THIS WAS THE VERY FIRST PAGE

THIS IS ME PRAYING THAT

I WAS ENCHANTED TO MEET YOU

I'LL SPEND FOREVER WONDERIN' IF YOU KNEW

I'M WONDERSTRUCK, DANCING AROUND ALL ALONE

THIS NIGHT IS FLAWLESS, DON'T YOU LET IT GO

I'LL SPEND FOREVER WONDERIN' IF YOU KNEW

I'M WONDERSTRUCK, BLUSHIN' ALL THE WAY HOME

THIS NIGHT IS SPARKLIN', DON'T YOU LET IT GO

ALL I CAN SAY IS IT WAS ENCHANTING TO MEET YOU

"HEY, IT WAS ENCHANTING TO MEET YOU"

I'D OPEN UP AND YOU WOULD SAY

WISHING YOU WERE AT MY DOOR

AND NOW, I'M PACING BACK AND FORTH

I WONDER 'TIL I'M WIDE AWAKE

2 A.M., WHO DO YOU LOVE?

THE LINGERING QUESTION KEPT ME UP

I WAS ENCHANTED TO MEET YOU

I'LL SPEND FOREVER WONDERIN' IF YOU KNEW

I'M WONDERSTRUCK, BLUSHIN' ALL THE WAY HOME

THIS NIGHT IS SPARKLIN', DON'T YOU LET IT GO

ALL I CAN SAY IS IT WAS ENCHANTING TO MEET YOU

AND IT WAS ENCHANTING TO MEET YOU

LIKE PASSING NOTES IN SECRECY

COUNTER ALL YOUR QUICK REMARKS

THE PLAYFUL CONVERSATION STARTS

STARTS TO MAKE ITS WAY TO ME

ACROSS THE ROOM, YOUR SILHOUETTE

YOUR EYES WHISPERED, "HAVE WE MET?"

ALL I CAN SAY IS IT WAS ENCHANTING TO MEET YOU

VANISHED WHEN I SAW YOUR FACE

SHIFTING EYES AND VACANCY

WALLS OF INSINCERITY

SAME OLD TIRED, LONELY PLACE

FORCING LAUGHTER, FAKING SMILES

THERE I WAS AGAIN TONIGHT
