Little Brunette

It was way back in November, in 1983 Playing pool with the boys, then my eyes did see This petite little brunette beside the table she sat I thought "If I don't marry her, I think I'll eat my hat" The girl she was with I knew from before We grew up together, for she had lived next door But it was the little brunette that captured my heart I just needed the courage for our lives to start So into the evening as I continued to shoot some pool Chatting between shots, she said my playing was cool I felt a difference in me, to well into the night This little brunette sure has caught my sight We went our separate ways, but burning inside me was a task For my heart kept telling me of something I should ask So I approached this little brunette, and politely asked her out Never in a million years did I think I was in with a shout We made plans to meet on the Friday of the following week This little brunette said yes to this pool playing geek So I met her off the bus as we dined with an Indian meal My belly now full of butterflies, is this how real love feels We enjoy a wonderful evening, chatting and sharing drinks I'm Wondering if we'll do it again, my minds in over think Little brunette says, "I must catch the last bus home" My bed beckons me also as I smile in lovestruck roam We meet the very next day as we share a cuddle and a kiss It's the start of our journey together in wedded loving bliss

Aww, you gave me chills, so sweet. Now if I could just get my Falkirk lad to write one about his wee ginger.... what a treasure I would cherish, even if it was terrible.... I wouldn't care because it would be mine.... one day, maybe..
