A Celebration



Don't worry darling,
That's not forever in my eyes,
Just want to hold you for a while,
Nobody knows how it will go,
Spending this night together;

I can hardly believe it's true,
I can hardly believe it's you,
A celebration...

Turn it on and let it fly away,
And let's see what we can do,
Oh little darling, it's really something,
When it's me and when it's you;

I'm going to give you everything I have,
Until the night is through,
Did you ever believe in love?
Did you ever believe in love?

I've got a feeling,
I've got a feeling in my heart,
We'd be together from the start,
Something inside you just cannot hide,
Is waiting the time to show it;

I can hardly believe it's true,
I can hardly believe it's you,
A celebration...

Turn it on and let it fly away,
And let's see what we can do,
Oh little darling, ain't you something,
When it's me and when it's you;

I'm going to give you everything I have,
Until the night is through,
Did you ever believe in love?
Did you ever believe in love?
Well this is it!

Something inside you cannot hide,
Is waiting the time to show it;

And I can hardly believe it's true,
I can hardly believe it's you,
A celebration...

And this is it!
"This is just a nice little love song about a fellow who's been admiring a girl for a long time and, to his absolute amazement, she's agreed to go out with him. He can't even believe that, at the end of the evening, here she is in his arms and they're about to, possibly, spend the night together. It's like in that great movie Tom Jones when, every so often, the actor turns directly to camera and says 'I don't believe this is happening to me!' So that's what the song is about; this guy saying 'I can't believe this is true. Look at her, the most beautiful girl in the street... and she's going out with me? It's a nice little song and, hopefully, it's a feeling which all men and women who have ever fallen in love have felt at one point about their partner. It's a good sign when they can't believe it's true. It's a simple little love song."
The Getaway Gazette, March 1992
