Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When the world is cold,
I will feel a glow just thinking of you
And the way you look tonight.
Yes you're lovely, with your smile so warm
And your cheeks so soft,
There is nothing for me but to love you,
With each word your tenderness grows,
Tearing my fear apart
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,
It touches my foolish heart.
Lovely, never, ever change.
Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it?
Cause I love you
Just the way you look tonight.
Mm, mm, mm, mm,
Just the way you look tonight

Some day, when I'm awfully low,
One day when I'm feeling really down
When the world is cold,
When everything around me is gloomy and uninviting
I will feel a glow just thinking of you
I'll find solace in thoughts of you and it will lift my spirits
And the way you look tonight.
Especially the image of you as you are in this moment
Yes you're lovely, with your smile so warm
You're beautiful, especially with your heartwarming smile
And your cheeks so soft,
Your cheeks are so gentle to the touch
There is nothing for me but to love you,
I can't help but fall deeply in love with you
And the way you look tonight.
Especially right now, in this very moment
With each word your tenderness grows,
Every word you speak oozes with care and affection
Tearing my fear apart
It dissolves and dispels all my worries and apprehensions
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,
Especially when you laugh, crinkling your nose
It touches my foolish heart.
It reaches my silly, vulnerable heart with such warmth
Lovely, never, ever change.
You're perfect just the way you are; never change a thing.
Keep that breathless charm.
Your alluring charm is absolutely captivating.
Won't you please arrange it?
Could you please keep it this way?
Cause I love you
Because I'm deeply in love with you
Just the way you look tonight.
Exactly the way you are at this very moment.
