Ten years

Early morning, bus ride, rain on the glass I feel lost and alone, like this world’s drifting past Drifting past Sitting by the window, thoughts in a spin Thoughts in a spin Then suddenly I saw the moment you walked in Moment you walked in You sat down across me, eyes far away Far away Like a veil softly hiding what they couldn’t say Couldn’t say Simple dress, and a bracelet so light Perfect profile, no makeup in sight You walked in and the whole world shined In this noisy city where I’ve spent my time Searching for you with no hope in sight For a love to hold and walk through life Like a vision of light, like an angel above Angel above How do I even start, how do I speak of love Speaking of love We sit there in silence, a distance so wide So wide so wide Then our eyes met at once, and the veil slipped aside A moment, a second stretched into years What do I do? I’m drowning in fears How do I move? What should I say? Try to speak but the words fade away Sitting across, you smiled so bright Coffee in hand, magic in your eyes I gave a nod, you winked right back And the gray routine faded to black Hand in hand and step by step Hearts in rhythm, no regret Laughter ringing, never ends You and me - our happy end, yeah! Now ten years have come and gone But that first meeting still lives on I still feel that trembling inside That look, that smile I couldn’t hide And how you brushed your hair so shy When I asked you about a lucky ride
