A Strange New Feeling

When we first met, I did not know the magnitude
Of the feelings I'd come to have for you
You entered my life after a great storm
And I found a new love had been born

A feeling that had slept deep within my heart
You reached in and gave it a new start
I do not know if it will stay
But I'd be a fool to shoo it away

For when I gaze at your beautiful face
I know to look away would be a disgrace
Your eyes, your skin, and your lovely hair
The beauty of an angel is displayed there

A gift from God, I know you are
When the light in your eyes shines like a star
With these new feelings I pray, Father please
Tell me what to do with these

For I've made mistakes prior to
And I'm afraid to repeat them with you
But my heart and mind are at peace again
So I do not fear to let you in

So I offer my hand and my heart
And I know that we shall never part
For you occupy my heart and mind too
So I can't help but saying "I love you"

When we meet, it's easy to see
That I find it hard to breathe
A fool, I know that's what I am
But there's more to see if you take my hand

I don't know what this feeling is
But I hope that it does not vanish
I know that no poem or lyric will do
to express the feelings I have for you

Something about you is reeling
In a strange new feeling
