I Saw Her Standing There - Daniel Johnston

Well, she was just

Well, she was just seventeen

And you know what I mean

And the way she looked was way beyond compare

So, how could I dance with another

When I saw her standing there

Well, she looked at me And I, I could see

That before too long I’d fall in love with her

She wouldn’t dance with another

When I saw her standing there

Well, my heart went boom

When I crossed that room

And I held her hand in mine

Well, we danced through the night

And we held each other tight

And before too long, I fell in love with her

Now I’ll never dance with another

Since I saw her standing there

Well, she was just seventeen

And I know what you mean

And the way she looked was way beyond compare

So how could I dance with another

When I saw her standing there

Well, she looked at me And I, I could see

That before too long, I’d fall in love with her

She wouldn’t dance with another

When I saw her standing there
