Reality dawned as I awoke from my sleep
the day had arrived when we would meet.
Filled with excitement I thought of you
and wondered if you're awake and excited too.

Its a long drive but we will meet halfway
in a quiet B & B on the mountain we'll stay.
We've planned it all and are taking the chance
that this is more than just a passing romance.

On the five hour drive our thoughts turn to the past
and the sad times that are over at long last.
For fifteen years we both thought life was over
and then by chance we did discover each other.

I turned in on the dusty road and saw his car there.
My heart missed a beat and I became aware
that my destiny could be behind that door.
It would only be seconds until I am sure.

I knocked and then heard the voice that I knew,
the door opened and here we were, me and you.
"You are so beautiful". I heard him moan
and into his open arms I willingly went home.

Our hearts, minds and bodies in unison,
it was unbelievable: as though we were one,
not strange, as though we had been forever.
This is how we dreamt it would be together.

For six days and six nights we laughed and loved
oblivious to everything around and above.
We'd come alive the stars held our hearts
and we knew that our life was about to start.
