I've been trying to nail down
What it was about that night
Made that flickering neon sign
Warm the room like candle light
Took a simple Southern boy
Let him find his Northern star
Made a palace decked in gold
From an old dark hotel bar
As I looked around the room
I couldn't quite believe
That tattooed waiter turned into
A high class maitre'd
On the piano was a drunk
Stumbling through some Dillan song
He became a virtuoso, singing Hallelujah
And it was amazing
How you changed things
Every time I looked at you
It was amazing, so amazing
Like the magic in the moon
It was your eyes your face a million ways
You lit up that room
Amazing
Was it just a slight of hand
How you hypnotized my heart
Made me see that life can change
From a crumbling house of cards
As we sat there holding hands
There appeared a fireplace
Then those couple empty beers
Turned to glasses of champagne
As I looked around the room
I couldn't quite believe
When those cracked and peeling walls
Turned a deep mahogany
At the table where we sat
There appeared a single rose
In a brilliant crystal vase
Then your face began to glow
And it was amazing
How you changed things
Every time I looked at you
It was amazing, so amazing
Like the magic in the moon
It was your eyes your face a million ways
You lit up that room
Amazing
Years from now when we're old and grey
That night we met will never fade away
The love we have grows stronger all the time
Come take a trip with me back to that night
Cause it was amazing
How you changed things
Every time I looked at you
It was amazing, so amazing
Like the magic in the moon
It was your eyes your face a million ways
You lit up that room
Amazing
