Hello my love, my angel, my queen
Two years ago, tonight, was the greatest night I’ve seen
So beautiful and perfect, it could have been a dream
I have never been happier, my joy was supreme

The look in your eyes, the glare, the gleam
Thinking about it now makes me want to scream
How happy we were October Nineteen
During the year of Twenty Eighteen

Do you remember the night, do you have a clue?
Do you remember the beauty as we took in the view?
The sparkle of the Eiffel Tower at the top of the hour
More beautiful than the freshest flower

I remember than night like it was yesterday
I remember wishing, in that moment to stay
I remember the peace as the world went away
As we looked out over Paris and took in the display

That night as we cuddled and fell asleep
I couldn’t help but gently weep
For the feeling I had was so supremely deep
Your love, I knew then, I desired to keep

And how far I did stray from that moment in time
To let you go, I consider a crime
To be with someone who makes you feel sublime
Which is why I must write and continue to rhyme

In the hopes that one day we can return to the Arc
And again look out at Paris in the dark
On a new adventure we would embark
And this time, forever, we’d leave our mark
