Past Overdue

I remember when I first met you...I knew then how I'd feel for you.
I tried to fight it but I knew it was there in your personality.
I'd do whatever I could to fight the way I feel. 
But it was inevitable you'd conquer my heart still.
That day I saw you standing there draped in blue.
Hair down,earrings sparkling in your smile.
In those few minutes I knew there was no way around it 
I'd love you no matter what I'd do. 
I had to have you.
There's no other way it could be you'd have to be with me. 
If I had to journey to heaven to beg and plead,
to ask God to please give you to me.
From that moment on I knew I had to treat you like a Queen.
And love you like no other greater love can be.
Being with you has been greater than anything I could ever dream. 
I'd swim to the bottom of the ocean just for a kiss.
I know there's no love greater than this.
No love could have been ever more destined than this.
I bet Romeo never felt for Juliet the way I feel for you.
But it was love at first sight which was past overdue.
