Gilly

Gilly I think of you
Silly but true
A birthday party brought you there that night
And I watched your charisma with delight

I leaned over to my friend
Pointed across the room and then
Pronounced that you would be the one for me
Your laughter just added to your beauty

Surprising how life can bring
Along someone to make us sing
A song of love or hope and put into our step
A little spring

We think we know how things will go
But we sure don’t we never know
Who’ll walk into our lives today
Or tomorrow

Well I got my surprise when
You introduced yourself to me and my friend
And conversation never flowed so well
And I fell a bit further under your spell

When it came time to say goodbye
I shook your hand and I looked in your eyes
And in that fleeting moment they revealed
That what I felt between us it was real

Surprising how life can bring
Along someone to make us sing
A song of love or hope and put into our step
A little spring

We think we know how things will go
But we sure don’t we never know
Who’ll walk into our lives today
Or tomorrow

Gilly I think of you
Silly but true
