It Couldn't Happen To Me

My heart skips a beat

you look my way

I want to wake beside you

every new day

When I look into your eyes

I can see what's to come

The generations we'll create

when we become one

I am drawn to you

forces beyond my control

For the first time in my life

I'm aware of my soul

How can a stranger

invade all my senses?

Leave me stripped bare

knock down all my fences

How did you do this?

what spell did you cast?

Were we once lovers

the lives of our past?

Now is the time

for our future to start

Today is the day

I offer you my heart

My heart pounding fast

it's words were spoken

As your lips touched mine

I became unbroken

We are now one

I lay in your arms

Slumber entices

using it's charms

I resist for fear

that this is a dream

Will I wake in the night

let out a harrowing scream?

Elusive true love, how can this be?

I've always thought " It couldn't happen to me".
