That Old Feeling
Rediscovering Longing: Emotions Unveiled in "That Old Feeling
Lyrics
Last night I started out happy
Last night, I began the evening feeling content and joyful.
Last night my heart was so gay
My heart was full of happiness and light last night.
Last night I found myself dancing
During the night, I found myself dancing in my favorite cabaret.
In my favorite cabaret
I was enjoying myself in a familiar and beloved entertainment venue.
You were completely forgotten
You were completely out of my thoughts, just a memory from the past.
Just an affair of the past
You were merely a past affair, not occupying my current thoughts.
Then suddenly something happened to me
Suddenly, something unexpected occurred and affected me.
And I found my heart beating, oh, so fast
My heart started beating rapidly in response to this unexpected event.
I saw you last night and got that old feeling
I observed you last night and experienced a familiar sensation.
When you came in sight I got that old feeling
Upon seeing you, I rekindled that familiar sensation.
The moment that you danced by I felt a thrill
As you danced by, I felt a sudden and intense thrill.
And when you caught my eye my heart stood still
Our eyes met, and at that moment, my heart stopped momentarily.
Once again I seemed to feel that old yearning
Once again, I experienced the old yearning or desire.
And I knew the spark of love was still burning
I realized that the spark of love from the past was still alive.
There'll be no new romance for me, it's foolish to start
I decided not to pursue a new romantic involvement; it would be unwise to start afresh.
For that old feeling, is still in my heart
The old feeling is still present in my heart.
I saw you last night and got that old feeling
I saw you again last night, and the old feeling resurfaced.
When you came in sight I got that old feeling
Your presence triggered that familiar emotion once more.
The moment that you danced by I felt a thrill
As you danced by again, I felt a similar thrill.
And when you caught my eye my heart stood still
Our eyes connected, and my heart paused again.
Once again I seemed to feel that old yearning
The old yearning returned to me once more.
And I knew the spark of love was still burning
The spark of love from the past was still burning within me.
There'll be no new romance for me, it's foolish to start
Choosing not to embark on a new romantic journey, as it would be imprudent.
For that old feeling, is still in my heart
The old feeling persists in my heart.
