People always ask how I knew
You were the one for me
How I could see clearly in such a crowded sea
When I travel back there to that moment in time
Well, it just flew right by me

That evening I was caught off guard
When you walked in
No one could've suspected that this was happening
Even I can't explain it
But I know that there's only just one way to say it

It only took one night to know that you'd be my lover
It only took one night for me to fall in love with you
And even in the moonlight, I knew there'd never be another
It only took one night for me to fall in love with you

Stumbling around for years, you know it brought me down
Dancing, dancing, dancing in all the wrong places
Just running around
And when I finally surrendered, I could see through the dark
There you were at the center

And even though you've gone on, I still believe it was
The right place at the right time
Now I know we'll be together again
So, until then, I'll be here
At the bar, telling anyone who wants to hear that

It only took one night to know that you'd be my lover
It only took one night for me to fall in love with you
And even in the moonlight, I knew there'd never be another
It only took one night for me to fall in love with you

It only took one night
It only took one night
Fall in love with you
It only took one night
It only took one night
Fall in love with you

Now every day a stranger hears me say
That in some typical way, we'll meet again someday

It only took
It only took
It only took one night

It only took
It only took
It only took one night
