From across the room your eyes meet mine.

Is it love at first sight, you give no sign.

You seem interested, yet shy away.

Is there something you're hiding, who's to say?

Have you heard too many empty promises and lies?

Keeping you from getting close to anyone who tries.

Does your soul bare scars you'd rather forget?

How many have hurt you without regret?

Do you lack the trust to give your heart?

Does the pain of your past tear you apart?

I slowly approach and gently caress your face.

Wishing all your bad memories, a touch would erase.

An instant connection I feel inside.

Your mutual feelings you cannot hide.

Come home with me, "be mine," I say.

Your tail wags as we walk away.
