2. Listen and identify all the /t/ sounds in the lyrics. Does the singer link any sounds? (Use the pen mode)

It's late in the eveningShe'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 alright?" And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight"

We go to a partyAnd everyone turns to see This beautiful lady That's walking around with me And then she asks me, "Do you feel alright?" And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight"

I feel wonderfulBecause 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 nowAnd I've got an aching head So I give her the car keys She helps me to bed And then I tell her, as I turn out the light I say, "My darling, you are wonderful tonight" Oh my darling, you are wonderful tonight
