Our eyes connect this feel so right ; I feel I know you from another life.
I want to hold you forever and more, it's funny but of this I'm sure.
I just want to protect you so much, I'm praying for just one touch.
I know in my heart it must be love; you went sent down from the heavens above.
So let's make this right, and we'll be togheter because not I've seen you I'll love you forever.
So forever may you be mine, because this is love at first sight and I'm not lying.
This love is a bond, of which I see, in my mind you'll be for eternity.
My heart will be broken if you're not mine, I'm sure I'll love you till the end of time.
— Love at First Sight, by Kirk Harper
