Across the table there you sit
Gazing into my eyes
Treating me like I've always wanted
Like a rare and valued prize.
Your compliments and gestures
Tell me Im the lucky one
And I could never begin to repay
All the lovely things you've done.

Arm in arm you escort me around
Like I was made of gold
Your soft and sweet gentle and kind
Yet your love is oh so bold.
Donning your white cowboy hat
And boots, jeans and a smile
I have never seen a man like you
Getting use to this might take awhile.

But then I think how easy it is
To think of you as mine
You make me feel like a lady I swear
Dignified and refined.
Your simplicity is only outdone
by the casual way you move
Confident in who you are
Knowing you've nothing to prove.

Yet I hold back I dont know why
Though there are a million reasons-
I should be sure... -you'd never lie
But I change like the seasons.
I warm to you then pull away
Not because of you
But Im still in awe of your essence
Are you to good to be true?

I want to zig instead I zag...
Reaching out to take your hand.
The heat is too much to resist
But more than I can stand-
How long will you wait for me
to make up my foolish mind
I know is this strange sensation
Is a rare and remarkable find.

You cross my mind a million times
Our words flow so easy and sweet
Yet I fret and ask myself
What I will do next time we meet.
Did the keeper of the stars
Have something to do with this?
Will I find the answer in
the sensation when we kiss?
