Just this hope...

Her smiling nod and kiss on my cheek,

The yes to the letter in that envelope;

Those sparkling eyes oh! How unique

My heart beats on just this hope;

The little pause she brings in me,

And the bubbling joy it creates;

Makes me want to be with her,

But also makes me crazy afraid;

Her absence will leave indelible scars,

My heart will roll down the slope;

It will stop for sure, won’t take me far,

‘Coz my heart beats on just this hope;

That she will nod and kiss on my cheek,

Say yes to the letter in that envelope;

Finally it’ll end this hide-and-seek

My heart beats on just this hope;
