You Make My Heart Glow

YOU MAKE MY HEART GLOW (Ballade)

It’s hard to remember my past, though
It isn’t so long since I met you.
I never expected my first beau
Would love me as much as you now do.
I couldn’t conceive, I had no clue,
If a girl asked to dance, you would let her
And linger together, just us two.
It’s not how I dreamed it. It’s better.

Your tender embrace made my heart glow
So brightly within, and it soon grew
To fill me and make my smile beam so.
The light shimmers strong ‘till it shines through.
I feel so resplendent, it’s so true,
The happiest down to the letter.
When you kiss me, my world feels brand new.
It’s not how I dreamed it. It’s better.

I look at you (if I can let go)
And take in the handsomest view.
The way your eyes smile lets my heart know
You certainly like what you see, too.
You’re skinny, but charming, your eyes blue,
But best of all, my one hug getter,
The gorgeous one I give my love to.
You’re not how I dreamed you. You’re better.

My dear sweetheart, Lee, I wish you knew:
For sharing your heart, I’m your debtor.
I used to imagine a love true.
It’s not how I dreamed it. It’s better.
