Today I finally met someone, who made me feel alive
She had the kind of beauty, for which most women strive
She was pretty through and through, right down to the bone
When she walked into the room, she really set the tone
All the eyes would turn to see, who was that lovely lady?
Surprised a lady that looked like that, would be seen with me
She saw right through my rough outside, and saw the good within
When she started talking to me, my heart she did win
She and I would sit and talk, all through the night
Then I would head for home, before it got too light
We talked and talked for nights on end about one thing or another
She listened to everything I said, and didn’t try to smother
We talked about the ways; we had been hurt in the past
And swore to each other, this would be the last
I wouldn’t ever hurt her, nor would she hurt me
That’s the way it’s supposed to go, the way it’s meant to be
We were in no hurry, to jump right into bed
We had to take our time, so our feelings said
So we kept on talking, our feelings we did share
When I told her how I felt, all she did was stare
I asked her quick, was something wrong, in the words I said
She said no, she’s had the same things, reeling round her head
That was when I first kissed her, and the sparks sure did fly
They were even brighter, than the stars up in the sky
I knew right then she was the one, I needed in my life
But I couldn’t bring myself, to ask her to be my wife
I had already been down that road, at least a time or two
And all I ever got for it, was months of feeling blue
So we just decided, we wouldn’t tie the knot
We would live together, no matter what others thought
That was when we went to bed, it was our first tryst
It was even more magical, than the time when first we kissed
We had so many feelings, left to be discovered
Even though a lot of them, had already been covered
That was many years ago, which brings me to today
Every night when I go to bed, on my knees I pray
I thank the Lord, for the heaven on earth, that I have with her
Even now, when I look at her, the feelings still do stir
For she is still my lady, and I am still her man
Just like it’s supposed to be, part of the master plan
I look deep into her eyes, and only love I see
For she is the only lady, that sees the real me
I will love her with all my heart, till my final day
I will never leave her alone, with her I’ll always stay
For she truly understands, my feelings kept inside
I will never abandon her, and she will never hide
We will stay together, right up till the end
We will try to do our best, to have no hurts to mend
That is the way it is with love, and how it’s supposed to stay
True love never really dies, and you never have to pay
