So who is this beauty? I’m
snared by her charm
She's smiling while holding another man’s arm
She is so amazing I can’t look away
I have but one moment, oh what shall I say?
She sits at the table across from my view
My heart pounds within me, she hasn’t a clue
I’ll try to be cool but I’m out of control
If I don’t do something I won’t be consoled
She catches me staring and turns with a smile
Will she accept me? Or see me as vile?
She looks back towards me, and stares for a while
I try not to flinch, but I know I am on trial
She excuses herself and walks from her friends
I follow behind… opportunity lends
We walk down the hallway just past the wall phone
She stops and then turns to address me alone
"I’m here with my cousin”, “He brought me tonight"
The words that are spoken a splendid delight!
"Please call me tomorrow sometime around three"
"I'll meet you for dinner. You think you’ll be free?"
She hands me a napkin and then walks away
I want to go with her I
know I must stay
Her name and her number are written for me
“I can’t wait to see you”…and signed…Emily
