What If, I Really Had Found You If I cursed you would you even care What if I love you and your dark black hair If I nursed you, when so sick and sad Would you forgive me being very bad? If I kissed you, if even on a dare What if I missed you, and your dark black hair? If I caught you, stone-blind and unaware Would you think of me as crude and unfair Should I embrace you, with love and my all Can you love me and answer this sweet call If I soon found you, with my life to share What if I had missed you and your black hair? If I waited your hand, would you wait too If love fated found us, could all come true If Cupid fired well that true loving dart Would you join me, there is room in this heart Can we ever both love and be a pair What if I had missed you and your black hair?

Robert, this piece generates alot of emotion (enough to make a grown manly man cry, you know those guys whose against crying in front of you LOL)!! This piece makes me think of some one wedding promise or vow. A true love it's more and should start from the inside. I love this. James :)

These chants carry more meaning than you may believe,"What if I had missed you and your black hair?" Interesting indeed...All the best Robert
