My days are plagued with thoughts
of a dream so long ago
One in which I met a man
who set my heart aglow

We danced the night away
beneath the bright, full moon
He spun me ‘round with such ease
to his charm I was not immune

He held me as the sun came up
but I was left frigid and forsaken
The place in bed beside me empty,
hating the moment I was awakened

My minds been haunted
with the image of that night
In which I finally felt complete
as if this man made it all right

I was thinking this over
one morning with the day still young
When I stepped onto the bridge
and felt an otherworldly tug

I looked up from the view
of the sunrise on the lake
And caught the gaze of someone
I’d convinced myself was fake

Low an behold, who would you believe
was standing on the edge
Locking eyes with me
prepared to jump from the ledge

That charming smile slowly appeared
on the man who’d sent my world into a frenzy
Time seemed to grind to a hault
as I gazed into those eyes that watched me so gently

He climbed over the rail
and we slowly came together
Just inches in between
my heart light as a feather

When he placed his hand in mine
I knew he was the one
Who’d shared a moment of space and time
and that my heart was won
