That Old Feeling
Peter Littman Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I saw you last night and got that old feeling
When you came in sight I got that old feeling
The moment that you danced by I felt a thrill
And when you caught my eye my heart stood still
Once again I seemed to feel that old yearning
And I knew the spark of love was still burning
There'll be no new romance for me, it's foolish to start
For that old feeling, is still in my heart





There'll be no new romance for me, it's foolish to start
For that old feeling, is still in my heart
