One True Romance

In the time it took me to learn your name,

Cupid and his arrow had already took aim.

In the sky where the winds danced,

I dare not spare even a passing glance.

I thought the jaybirds sung,

But then again I was just foolish and young.

In the emerald cave where we kept our love,

The rain had fallen from the heavens above.

I knew what had been had to be,

Because now the blind shall once again see.

We laughed a laugh that shook the Earth,

I thought it would last for all that it was worth.

I saw the way... the way you smile,

A target that I would miss just by a mile.

Everything happens for a reason,

There is love in the air and in the season.

In the past I had my regrets,

While I quietly smoked all those cigarettes.

I was slowly slipping... slowly fading,

My heart was doing all of the business and trading.

Our paths crossed and then they intertwine,

On this day... this day of Valentine.

A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.

But a love with a name like yours and my heart will forever beat.
