*Heart* LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT *Heart*

It may have been his winning smile
Or the sunlight in his eyes
That touched my heart that day
And soon made me realize
*Heart*
That my heart was swept away,
I was lost without a fight;
I never thought it would happen
But it was love at first sight!
*Heart*
His voice was soft and sensual,
And bore into my soul so fast
That my head and heart were spinning,
Oh, if only this could last!
*Heart*
I thought I'd been in love before,
This time I'd get it right!
He soon set my heart dancing;
True love at first sight!
*Heart*
His fingertips touched my lips
When I told him of my feeling;
He shook his head and kindly said,
Hold on, my mind is reeling.
*Heart*
He said I feel the same way, too,
But the timing wasn't right;
I'm just not ready for commitment,
Don't believe in love at first sight.
*Heart*
So like a wounded puppy dog,
{I wasn't really very bright)
I clung to him and cried;
For my heart said it was right.
*Heart*
He said he wanted friendship,
It was all that he could give;
All I wanted was his love
As long as I could live.
*Heart*
Months went by and soon I felt
A distance in his eyes;
I pretended it didn't matter,
But I didn't ever realize
*Heart*
That he did believe in love
And at first sight, it's true;
For he married someone else,
There was nothing I could do.
*Heart*
So now that he has walked away
And now that I have closed the door,
I find that time wounds all heels;
Somewhere out there is much more.
*Heart*
I still look into their eyes
In the stillness of the night,
I'll never stop believing
In love - at first sight.
*Heart*
Another time, another place;
I saw the smile upon your face
And in the stillness of the night.
I found another love at first sight.
*Heart*
