I wonder what it’d be like
if I had met you from scratch.
With no history or prior knowledge
Just a good old fashioned match.
What if I’d never ever seen you,
Or hadn’t met you before
And the first time that it happened
Was in a grocery store.
I would see you look intently
at all the meats and cheeses
And I’d ask for your opinion
And of course, I would say “please.”
And you would be so helpful
to explain it all to me
more than I’d ever want to know
about all that meat and cheese.
I’d stare into those blue green eyes
and see that precious grin
and I’d know right from the very start
that for me it was the end.
We’d talk and talk for quite some time
then I knew we’d have to go
You’d say, “we’ll have to hang out soon
for dinner and a show.”
And I'd smile and flirt right back at you
and I’d say, "is that a date? "
you'd blush and say "oh no--
just hanging out --hey -- but wait..."
"let me get your number
and I’ll be sure to text you mine.
we'll figure all this stuff out,
heck -- we’ve got lots of time."
I'd stop and ponder what you said
as I'd pass my number on
and I knew it’d be such fun with you
With all we had in common.
I’d imagine what we’d do and wonder
Where we’d go
And think of all the times we’d eat
Or hang out at the show.
I’d stare into those sweet sweet eyes
While my heart just turned to mush
And thought of all things we’d do…
And couldn’t help but blush…
You’d say “I’ll see you later”
I’d nod and say ‘sweet dreams”
-- and then I just woke up from my nap
Overheated, but so serene.
