I close my eyes
to the first day we met
I thought you was perfect
Even the best
At first we were friends
Chatting in the sun
But secretly I knew
That you were the one
We were having a picnic
I was staring at your face
Wishing there was me and you
I slipped into a daze
The others were asking
What I was thinking
I changed the subject
And carried on drinking
I went home
Wrote your name on my hand
They thought I had a crush
But they didnt understand
The more time I spent with you
The faster my heart would beat
Everytime I closed my eyes
Your face is what I would see
One day I was at your house
And you offered me some tea
I continued thinking
That we were meant to be
Then you said you had a secret
And I asked for you to say
You then said you are in love
You think about her each day
But then I asked who she was
And you didnt want to tell
So I got of my seat
And went to the wishing well
I wished that somehow
That girl was me
So I tossed in my coin
And closed my eyes to dream
A few days later
I saw you again
And you were holding hands
With your new girlfriend
I ran home
With tears pouring down
I didn't want to live
I wanted to drown
So I ran a bath
But then I heard a knock
So I looked through the keyhole
And gave me a shock
To my delight
I opened the door
It was then I saw you
The boy I adore
I told you I loved you
While you stroked my head
You said you loved me too
And that you wanted to wed
I ask you what happened
To the other lass
And you said you dumped her
As she was being an ass
You said I was the one
You were talking to me about
But you didnt want to say
As it might freak me out
You then kissed me on the lips
And knelt on your knee
You asked me to marry you
And I shouted yes in glee
70 years on
And its the present day
But I still find you perfect
In every single way
You may have grey hair
And wrinkles everywhere
But my love for you
Will always be there
to the first day we met
I thought you was perfect
Even the best
At first we were friends
Chatting in the sun
But secretly I knew
That you were the one
We were having a picnic
