Ce Soir Je T'Attendais (English translation: "This Night I Waited For You") was the Luxembourgish entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1966, performed in French by Michèle Torr.

The song is a ballad, with Torr telling her lover about her feelings of anticipation as she waited for him to arrive at her house. She sings that she had planned a romantic evening, but was slightly concerned due to the manner in which they had left each other the last time they were together. In the event, her confidence that he would come paid off.

The song was performed fourth on the night (following Belgium's Tonia with Un Peu De Poivre, Un Peu De Sel and preceding Yugoslavia's Berta Ambrož with Brez Besed). At the close of voting, it had received 7 points, placing 10th in a field of 18.

It was succeeded as Luxembourgish representative at the 1967 Contest by Vicky with L'Amour Est Bleu.
