I imagined the perfect love for me
Would be someone with just the right qualities.
With just one look, one glimpse into those wonderful eyes,
My knees would grow weak time after time
And with just that one look, that one glimpse inside,
I would peer into the depths of his soul
And see it smiling back at me,
Making me whole.
He would take me into his strong arms and hold me so close, so tight.
His touch would calm all my fear and fright.
No matter what I would do,
His love for me would see me through;
Through all the good times and the bad.
Our love would hold us up and never let us be sad.
This is how I imagine my perfect love.
Taking moonlit walks
Along the lake shore.
Where we would stroll and talk.
Hand in hand, arm in arm
With him holding me so close, so tight.
Listening to every word,
I would say or write.
Going that extra mile,
If need be,
To try and make me smile and laugh.
Always ready with a joke or pun,
He would have to be loads of fun.
There is a blind man who lives right down the road.
If only I could see him face to face
'Cause I've got a feeling running deep inside.
It's one that I can't deny.
Since...
I woke up this morning with him on my mind.
I'd been dreamin’ about him all night.
I woke up knowing I had something…
Something I needed to tell him today
And I think maybe,
I've found the right words to say.
This perfect love that I imagine is him.
No one else on earth can touch my heart and soul the way he does
With the little things that he says,
He melts my heart when I hear his voice
Singing to me those sweet love songs in the afternoon sun.
Oh, what fun we had.
My only desire is that he will feel the same way.
'Cause I’ve lost my heart to him...
Completely.
To this perfect love...
The blind man down the road.
Is love missing here?
'Cause I have nothing in return.
No perfect love
For which my heart yearns.

Mysterious Blind Man - Hmmm!
And just why is your man blind???
With a bit of psycho knowledge - maybe you have something to hide or are mysterious yourself!!! <--More probable!
This was certainly a perfect love.
Thanks for entering.

You know the mysterious blind man. At least, I think you have met him. He lives just east of here. But things just didn't work out. That's life, I guess!
You are welcome for entering.
