Ο Eric Clapton έγραψε το "Wonderful Tonight" το 1976, περιμένοντας την τότε φίλη του (και τη μελλοντική σύζυγό του) Pattie Boyd να προετοιμαστεί για μια βραδινή έξοδο.
Στις 28 Μαρτίου 1979, μετά την ημέρα που παντρεύτηκαν, ο Clapton έφερε την Pattie στη σκηνή και τις το τραγούδησε στη συναυλία του στο Tucson της Αριζόνα.
It's late in the evening; she's wondering what clothes to wear
She puts on her make-up and brushes her long blonde hair
And then she asks me, "Do I look all right?"
And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight"
We go to a party and everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady that's walking around with me
And then she asks me, "Do you feel all right?"
And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight"
I feel wonderful because I see
The love light in your eyes
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize how much I love you
It's time to go home now and I've got an aching head
So I give her the car keys and she helps me to bed
And then I tell her, as I turn out the light
I say, "My darling, you were wonderful tonight
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight"
