Some like a night at the movies,
some like a dance or a show
Some are content with an evening
spent home by the radio
Some like to live for the
moment, some like to just reminisce
But whenever I have an evening
to spend. just give me one like this
This is a lovely way to spend an
evening. can't think of anything I'd rather do
This is a lovely way to spend an
evening, can't think of anyone as lovely as you
A casual stroll through a
garden. a kiss by a lazy lagoon
Catching a breath of moonlight,
humming our favorite tune
This is a lovely way to spend an
evening
I want to save all my nights and
spend them with you
Catching a breath of moonlight,
humming our favorite tune
This is a lovely way to spend an
evening
I want to save all my nights and
spend them with you
