One Thing I Should Have Said

One Thing I Should Have Said You would never know how many times I think of you Remembering our first date The first time you took my hand It was so small I wrapped mine around it to protect it We walked forever beneath the night’s blue moon Your eyes were beautiful gems in the faint light I wanted to tell you so many things that night So many things that scared me to death Feelings found during many months of watching you walk by You didn’t notice me among the crowds It took so long, such torture to get the nerve to talk to you One hello between us A single word that broke the endless ice between us It gave me the chance to get to know you To find out your likes, your fears and your dreams It all led to the first time that I truly saw the real you That evening pasted with a kiss as soft as a kitten’s fur We shared many more evenings, many more blue moons But as they say all good things must come to an end In the past I have been with other women Loved them each in their own special way Yet, after all these years After all the women and all their kisses That first date with you is the one I remember And when I die and go to Heaven I will tell The Almighty what I want my Heaven to be Endlessly reliving our date over and over again Reliving it until I can tell you what I was afraid to tell you Until I can tell you that I loved you Then I will be at peace
