Lyrics
well well michelle
you came to me
on a summer day in 1963
on that beach
in waikiki
your eyes met mine
i knew we had to be
michelle
you and me
were meant to be
well...
michelle
when our eyes met
that day was one i will
never forget
when you first put
your hand in mine
i knew i'd be yours
for all time
michelle
you and me
were meant to be
well...
michelle
3 years have passed
my love for you is still
growing strong
michelle
if we should fight
you know it won't ever last
for long
michelle you and me were meant to be
well every time we go out on the town
everybody looks you up and down
everyone can hardly believe
the luck of a poor sap like me
michelle you and me were meant to be
