The Glance

I saw her smile from across the room The romance began and my love did bloom She then gave me a glance, I wanted to dance Underneath the stars and the glow of the moon. She would be mine forever that night I thought As slowly towards her that love I sought We will dance and laugh, she will become my path She will be mine when her heart I had caught. I close my eyes and I see us years from now Together we became one as I gave my vow She became my mate, and now our life is our fate With every step closer that promise I avow. Closer and closer as I approached her my love As though watched and coached from angels above I am so near, now her presence and voice I do hear Now only her and I is all that I am thinking of. I finally arrive and each other we finally do see She must know I am the man that she wants me to be So I reach out my hand, to make that final stand Then she turns to me and say, that glance wasn't for me.
