I said oh my, what a marvelous tune
It was the best night, never would forget how we moved
The whole place was dressed to the nines
And we were dancing, dancing
Like we're made of starlight
Like we're made of starlight
I met Bobby on the boardwalk, summer of '45
Picks me up late one night at the window
We were 17 and crazy running wild, wild
Can't remember what song it was playing when we walked in
That night we snuck into a yacht club party
Pretending to be a duchess and a prince
And I said oh my, what a marvelous tune
It was the best night, never would forget how he moved
The whole place was just to the nines
And we were dancing, dancing
Like we're made of starlight, starlight
Like we're made of starlight, starlight
He says "look at you worrying so much
About things you can't change"
You'll spend your whole life singing the blues
If you keep thinking that way
He was trying to skip rocks in the ocean saying to me
"Don't you see the starlight starlight
Don't you dream impossible things"
Like oh my, what a marvelous tune
It was the best night, never would forget how we moved
The whole place was just to the nines
And we were dancing, dancing
Like we're made of starlight, starlight
Like we're made of starlight, starlight
Ooh ooh he's talking crazy
Ooh ooh dancing with me
Ooh ooh we could get married
Have ten kids and teach them how to dream
Oh my, what a marvelous tune
It was the best night, never would forget how we moved
The whole place was just to the nines
And we were dancing, dancing
Like we're made of starlight, starlight
Like we're made of starlight, starlight
Like we're made of starlight, starlight
Like we dream impossible dreams
Like starlight, starlight
Like we dream impossible dreams
Don't you see the starlight, starlight
Don't you dream impossible things
