If I could grab hold of time and freeze it, I would make sure you were with me
When we were alone I would ask the sun to warm us then hold you to me
You would bring me such happiness and the doves would bring us such peace of mind
If I could just hold onto time.
If I could find a willing moon beam I would ask it to shine throughout our night
Its light would shine on your golden hair and light up my life with such brightness and beauty
Orchid Lady, the stars in the night sky envy that golden aura you carry upon your head
If I could find that moon beam.
If I could find that elusive Orchid and bring it to your side; it would never be as beautiful as you
Try as it would that orchid would take one look at you and close its colourful petals
There will never be a flower that can hope to better your unmatched features and will hang its head
If I could find that orchid.
If I could listen to a voice that would sound as wonderful as your magical vocal tones -
- then a miracle unknown to the perfectionists of this world would have taken place
Should I listen to untold millions of people none of them could hope to please my ears
If I could hear that voice.
If I could hold you to me forever; forever would not be long enough for my arms to enfold you
Orchid Lady, you possess a softness that presses against my body like silk and my heart simply races
Many men search for years in their quest for perfection, but I have you and their search will continue
If I could hold you forever.
If I could ask the sky to bring you days of blueness without harming you from the sun's searching rays
That blue sky would settle over you and make your days so enjoyable and nurture your health
There would be no sign of those ugly grey skies that try to frighten you with their thunderous roars
If I could bring you blue skies.
One thing I can do and that is to honour you with a love that has no limits to its care for you
Even Cleopatra never experienced a love that lies in my heart and openly lives for my Orchid Lady
No known riches held by those with an avid greed for jewels and precious stones dug from this earth -
- can ever hope to match that love between us.
