The very first time
Since the very time i first saw your face
you rapidly caught my eye
but i couldn't figure out why
there was no real reason why
it wasn't just your pretty face
nor your perfect smile
not even your lovely eyes, baby girl,
it was something i couldn't see
it was something no one would see
it was something i felt
something i felt deep inside of me
but, at the time, i didn't know what it was.
Then the very first time, the very first time
i looked deep into your eyes
i started to realize
that i couldn't keep you out of my mind out of my dreams
you were always in my heart each day and every night
and i started to realize
that if you weren't by my side i would feel sick
like i was about to die
and i must admit i was scared
because i never felt this way before.
Then the very first time i kissed your lips
i finally realized what i had seen in you
and why you had caught my eye
but who would have thought
that on the day i first saw your face
i would see the one,
see the one i wanted to grow with
see the one i wanted to have children with
see the one i needed by my side
each morning i wake, each night i sleep.
And now i promise you, for the first and only time
i will always love you- more and more every day
until the day i'm here no more
then i will be the angel in the sky
watching over you from above
making sure you will always be safe.
