It Started with a Smile
The Love of my Life

Touched by a smile from across the room
Warming my emotions, dissipating my gloom
I am intrigued, open to receive
That which I hope will not deceive
My heart as I feel alone losing its home
I approach, each step a little unsure
I approach, each step wanting to know more
I approach, what seed will be sown
I approach, still feeling alone losing its home
Side by side, words fail
Side by side, that warm feeling still prevails
Face to face, glances become a magnetic gaze
And I am at once a giddy child and a man amazed
Then we simultaneously we burst into laughter
And without words we knew
Something remarkable was becoming true
As love moved in and alone lost its home
Now it's forty years later
Yet, it still feels the same as the day
I caught your glance from across the room
That sent alone on its way
