The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face

The first time ever I saw your face It was at the wrong time and in the wrong place There was no coffee bar but a castle for two That’s the first time, that I ever saw you. The look of surprise and of love shone my way No discomfort no shyness made a wonderful day The first time ever I saw your face I never thought it would really take place. The touch of your hand on my waiting fingers The spark of love still sits there and it still lingers The first time ever I saw your face My eyes closed, I can feel where my fingers did trace. To learn the lines and the smile that I love so much To feel the warmth of your heart in every tender touch The first time ever I saw your face That now haunts me and fills every single space. A face that looks my way, although from afar A face I see next to mine, that shines as a star. The first time ever I saw your face Is embedded in my heart and will never be backspaced. © 1/12/2012~GG~

Mandy, knowing the song that this title came from, I just had to see this poem. You emulate the feeling of love that was in that song from years ago. This is full of your heart!
