When I First Met You

WHEN I FIRST MET YOU When I first met you, I looked in your eyes As we stood there talking, I felt hypnotized Whatever came over me, really gave me a start I realize now it was the fact you'd stolen my heart You still have my heart tucked away some place But I don't really need it, no matter the case So please hang onto it and guard it well You may become attached to it, you never can tell If you should decide that I need it back Please return it gently, for it won't be intact It'll always be broken, never, ever to mend If I can't be your lover, I still will be your friend So think of that meeting that night and, hopefully recall When your eyes mesmerized me and caused me to fall So deeply in love hoping to start life anew That night out in the churchyard, when I first met you Curtis Moorman September 1992
