I Never Knew Your Name
Paul Anka

Although we've never, never danced
I loved you with just one glance

You were dancing, I was glancing
As you passed me on the floor
You saw me glancing but you kept dancing
Out of the room and through the door

I beg your pardon, but in the garden
He placed a flower in your hair
But when he kissed you, oh how I missed you
Wishing that I were there

  Then I dreamed upon a star
  Wishing I was where you are
  How I thought the day would never come
  And when I thought that I was first
  All at once my bubble burst
  And I was standing where I started from

To my regret dear, we've never met dear
But I love you just the same
Although we've never danced
I loved you with just one glance
And I never, no I never knew your name

(la-la-la-la-la  la-la-la-la-la  la-la-la-la-la-la-la-laaa
la-la-la-la-la  la-la-la-la-la  la-la-la  la-la-laaa)

To my regret dear, we've never met dear
But I love you just the same
Although we've never danced
I loved you with just one glance
And I never, no I never knew your name

(la-la-la-la-la  la-la-la-la-la
la  la-la-la  la!)
