Elizabeth
At first I thought I was mistaken
But her eyes kept diverting to me
Unsure and a little bit shaken
Taken back by a Russian beauty
I’d watch her walk past my apartment
An exciting, self confident walk
Auburn hair and a smile heaven sent
I just knew with her I had to talk
Sitting on the porch in the courtyard
Relaxing, enjoying the night air
Sneaking up and catching me off guard
My dream girl Russian beauty so fair
Her sitting next to me changed my life
We talked leaving out not a thing
How I met Elizabeth, my wife
Of twenty-six years and still counting
