Lyrics

The first time that I saw how you smiled
I moped for days, I was so beguiled.
The next time when I caught your eye
My cool shut down, my mouth went desert dry

Chorus
Every time you're close, I feel bewitched and becursed,
'Cause the thousandth time is still as good as the first.

The third time when you sashayed my way
I hardly spoke for fear of saying some dumb cliche
The fourth time when you asked me to dance
It took all my will to break me out of my trance.

Chorus
Every time you're close, I feel bewitched and becursed,
'Cause the thousandth time is still as good as the first.

Late at night, with the lights turned down low
You love me in ways a person couldn't possibly know.
And this morn, with the dawn's early rise
You woke me up with that smokey heat still in your eyes.

Chorus
For richer or poorer, for better or worse
'Cause the thousandth time still as good as the first.
Every time you're close, I feel bewitched and becursed,
'Cause the thousandth time is still as good as the first.
Thousandth time’s as good as the first.
Thousandth time’s as good as the first.
Thousandth time’s as good as the first.
