In a nightclub
I was there earlier this week
_____
And I felt so alone there
_____
I sat next to an empty stool
_____
I longed so much for you here by my side
I asked, "Drink with me?"
_____
When you toasted and looked at me
_____
I thought, a little in love
_____
If I'd known what you thought then
_____
I'd never have waited for you
_____
Like a child I was dreaming
_____
Tonight you're mine
_____
But that dream passed quick
_____
I've gotta step out, but I'll be right back
Oh, that stool stayed empty
_____
You'd left without me, I was alone now
_____
I thought, a little in love
_____
If I'd known what you thought then
_____
I'd never have waited for you
_____
Like a child I was dreaming
_____
I thought, a little in love
_____
If I'd known what you thought then
_____
I'd never have waited for you
_____
Like a child I was dreaming
_____
Tonight you're mine
_____
But that dream passed quick
