First Night

You gaze from across the room.
Flickering lights, colours of the rainbow
The smile you gave me, made me assume
For the smile I gave you back was my show.

Walking over to you to the music beat
Heart pounding and eyes wide and glazed
Getting closer to you and the empty seat
My secret will be to make you amazed

Cute red silky, sexy little number
Poised lips so bright, supporting a straw
Us together, we can make some thunder
Slow dancing, we should dance some more

Slowly sipping away, getting more dizzy 
Holding each other with such new passion
Now on the champagne, oh how it’s so fizzy!
Out of control, maybe we should ration? 

What a great night, such fun being with you
We should dance again, maybe I should call?
Maybe next time I see you, you’ll be wearing blue.
And your brown eyes make you worth my all.
