The Young Man From Quebec
The first time I saw him, my heart took flight.
What a beautiful, beautiful sight!
Dark-eyed and gorgeous with plenty of height!
He came where I worked, stealing glances each night
as he streaked through my life like a comet so bright.
In less than one week, that guy would be gone.
What a beautiful, beautiful sight.
How I wished our time could go on.
It seemed all my young life I'd wanted to be
with a boy like that; it was so heavenly
every evening when he came around. I would see
this young man flashing flirty smiles at me!
Later I learned he'd felt shy until he
asked me out finally! We kissed in his car.
With a boy like that, it was so heavenly!
I'll never forget him - my bright vanished star.
Indelible is my memory of the young man from Quebec.
Dedicated to Guy Loranger, wherever he might be.
