From young love, to aged love 'twas all found in a moment, and held for a lifetime...
“The Love of A Lifetime, Found In A Moment”

Would I change the past
if given half the chance?
would I avoid the fall
or still ask for this dance?
Around and around we revolve
your eyes gazing into mine,
as I drink your beauty in
like the vine ripened wine.
Tell me this moment shall last forever
and never turn your gaze from me,
give this soul the peace that comes with your embrace,
and give these eyes a reason to see.
A subtle peace falls upon my soul
like the tears of heaven in the spring
I know now what love is,
and the true joy that it can bring
through the years your gaze may grow dim,
and your wine might not taste as sweet,
our dance might lose a step,
and it might get off beat,
but I would not change a thing
because you took the chance,
and you said “yes,”
when this scared boy, “asked you for this dance.”
