Yet another identification thread

[Kawaii]

I'm looking for a certain romantic song... Quite a tear-jerker, a part of the lyrics is something like "... I'll never forget... the way you look... tonight" It's sung by a white male, can't quite remember his voice.
Any ideas on which song it might be?

Ooh, ooh - I know, I know *frantically wavs hand in air*

Aniversary Song by Al Jolson and Saul Chaplin

(I think)

Does this ring a bell?

Oh, how we danced on the night we were wed!
We vowed our true love, though a word wasn't said.
The world was in bloom. there were stars in the skies,
Except for the few that were there in your eyes.

Dear, as I held you close in my arms,
Angels were singing a hymn to your charms.
Two hearts gently beating, murmuring low,
"Darling, I love you so."

The night seemed to fade into blossoming dawn.
The sun shone anew, but the dance lingered on.
Could we but relive that sweet moment sublime,
We'd find that our love is unaltered by time.

As recorded by Al Jolson, 1946.
A popular source for parodies:
Oh how we danced on the night we were wed
I needed a wife like a hole in the head.
(Abe Burrows)

Oh how we danced on the night we were wed
We danced and we danced 'cause the room had no bed
