New year's eve in Gweedore, the party in full swing
A friend of mine passed by a girl
And she said with a grin
"Hi Peter, how's it going lad?" he said "I'm alright
But sorry I'm not Peter", she answered with delight:
"Please be Peter, just for tonight
Please be Peter, oh won't you
Please be Peter tonight"
Later he was talking to this pretty lass
When I passed by again he gave her a kiss
Another hour later she took him to her home
They spent the night quite happily
By the light of the full moon
He'd been Peter just for one night
Been Peter just for one night
Peter - for one night
Before we met, I never knew love at first sight
But something about you altered my mind
The way you moved, the way you laughed
Pierced straight into my heart
And when you cast your eyes on me
Mine just couldn't part
Far on a distant shore
You're out of reach
You're miles away from me
There's no way we can be
More than just friends
I know that in my mind
But I'd give all the world
And more if you'd be
Peter for tonight
