For Tommy

Way back when I was just a 
child
I met my soul mate there
Just a young boy hiding 
I couldn't help but stare 

I knew then that I loved you 
I was just a innocent girl 
you had that naughty look 
about you
That look that makes me smile

We were like close family then 
Who ever would have guessed?
That all these years that have 
gone by 
Wed ever meet again 

You came back into my life 
When we were man and 
women 
All the innocence had been 
taken 
That boy and girl forgotten

Our lives completely different 
But however fate has won.
Now I've met my perfect 
match
"the one" I depend on.

I can't express how happy I 
was 
That very first night to see
That big flash car parked rite 
outside 
Was you you'd come for me.

 from that very moment 
I knew right then and there 
That boy I knew when I was 
young
I'd never let go again.

I now know just what love is 
Something you cannot see 
But a feeling that's so beautiful 
it is meant for you and me
