There We Were

There we were out on a lake
We just stared, neither spake
Our eyes in meeting said it all
No words required, just the call
Of silent hearts, affection, woo
The last one was from me to you
And woo I did, I tried my best
To prove my love and all the rest
Like showing you so you can see
How valuable you are to me
And that I did through ears that heard
My senses took in every word
You didn't speak but loudly said
A bookmark on the last page read
A pause before I read again
To cherish what you said 'til then
