You said, "Hello," and loneliness said, "Goodbye," then.
Then it made me so glad I almost had to cry then.
I never believed in love at first sight,
But when you held me tight that night,
I knew with you, it wasn't a lie, now.
I said, "Oh, my-my-my, my, my-my.
what a sweet thing that-a was (sweet thing that was).
Your soul was sweet, your lips were warm and tender.
(Bom-ba-dom, bom-ba-dom.)
I wanted your kiss, I couldn't resist -- surrender.
(Bom-ba-dom.)
I could have sworn that violins played,
'Cause when the rhythm swayed,
With you so near, I heard the sound of your sigh, now.
Said, "Oh, my-my-my, my, my-my.
what a sweet thing that-a was (sweet thing that was).
Short instrumental break.

I felt like crying.
You weren't lying, a-no no.
What a sweet thing that-a was (sweet thing that was).
And then when I heard you whisper the word, "forever,"
(Bom-ba-dom, bom-ba-dom.)
I knew that we'd live the rest of our lives together.
(Bom-ba-dom.)
The feeling we shared was too much to bear,
And when you said you cared, I swear,
I felt that I was ready to die, now.
Oh, well-a, my-my-my, my, my-my.
what a sweet thing that-a was (sweet thing that was).
what a sweet thing that-a was (sweet thing that was).
My-my-my, my, my-my (sweet thing that was).
Fade.
what a sweet thing that-a was (sweet thing that was).
My-my-my, my, my-my...
Then it made me so glad I almost had to cry then.
I never believed in love at first sight,
But when you held me tight that night,
I knew with you, it wasn't a lie, now.
