A night to remember

While gazing at the stars above;
Felt my heart skip a beat.
Reminded of a memory sweet;
The night we confessed our love.

Closed my eyes and gave a sigh – falling deep into a dream.
β€œFrom the moment I first saw you, knew that it was meant to be;
No power on this earth could ever take you away from me.”
The silver moon had brighter gleamed.

How the time has passed;
I pondered with a smile.
Closer than we were ever before.
As the clock struck nine – he arrived long at last.
His eyes continue to beguile.
Never knew the heart could soar.
