From the First Time That I Saw You
Was it yesterday , when I lost track of time
Was it last night when I saw you
that these lips yearned once again
for wafting spice from heated wine .
Was it last night when you got too close
Was it that your smile ?
Somehow it shone brighter
warmer , even lighter - in my lonely night .
Yesterday, I saw you , as I closed my eyes
I saw you with my whole heart
and not with rambling thoughts , cobwebbing my mind.
Awestrucked by your passion play
never thought you'd make me feel this way
Was this love at first sight. ?
I swear I heard a whisper, a hush - hushed gentle whisper
I felt it blowing softly , deep inside .
Is this imagination , tender infatuation
Is this a virgin instinct I can't hide.
Was it yesterday , when I lost track of time
No , yesterday is gone , the chapter should be thorn
I'll continue sailing , steering the wheel , alone.
Pure Fiction : )
