At long last I have caught your eye
Caught it while you passed me by
A glance exchanged, warmth transferred
She wears what I have always preferred
Finally, my smile’s reciprocated warmly
As I look into your eyes, serenely, calmly
You look dapper, antique accessories
After the fact, is my heart left intact?
After all the waiting, all the heartache endured
An English rose, blooming petals that perdured
The rain and gushes of fierce wind
Our glances met and we both just grinned
The shop is closed, the curtains drawn
As I am to you; the ante that’s to up
Be so kind as to pour me another cup
And let’s move earth and heavens til dawn
