Until I Met You - Beth Hirsch

Can a dance enhance

A couple’s chance

To fall into a trance?

Can a laugh beghin

The where within

To start a new romance?

Can arms so strong

Be placed along

The place where we belong?

Can a body melt?

I’d never felt, I’d never known

Til I met you

Can the doubt that’s creeping

While you’re sleeping

Program it to lose?

Can love or hate

That’s risked your fate

Suffice to pay your dues?

Can a tear increase

The fears release

In helping you to choose?

Love had only seemed

A taunting dream

I’d never know

Til I met you

Some days are over

But some are right here

To wink you in the eye

A memory pleases

Before it teases

Out to make you cry

So in the long run

You’ll be your one gun

It’s do or die

And then I met you

Oh, why…

Can a thought get caught

In what it oughtnt’t

Dressing you in green?

Can jealous monster

Come to haunt

Creating ya’ll a scene?

Can trust surpass

The many passes

No doubt come to pass?

Can the good persist?

I’d only wished but

Never known til I met you
