Love At First Sight

Girls, oh there were girls

but they were just part of the social whirl

and I never took much notice

until the night that I met you.

Standing out there alone

out on the terrace under the moon

from the moment that I kissed you

my life turned into a dream.

I knew I loved you at first sight

and that you loved .. me.

Was it really happening, or was it a dream ?

I asked if you'd be mine

feeding the white doves by the Serpentine

and when you said forever

I know that I almost cried.

You all in white

the tears and the laughing

nearly losing the damn ring

Yes, I do ... Yes, I will... keep you from harm.

Those few short days

we spent together

remembered forever

all the plans - for the house and for the children.

I know I loved you at first sight

and that you loved ..me.

Did it really happen then, or was it a dream ?

I knew when I saw your face

opening orders, the time and the place

oh, don't worry it won't last long

and I won't be far away

I'll try to write every day...
