We talked and laughed mutually
Everything I said he
agreed unusually
How can he be so similar to me?
In thought, in ideas, our planning in glee
When I revealed my biggest dream
He smiled and said what a great scheme
By your side with whatever you need
Don’t be alone, I can nurture the seed
And when I lost faith and began to doubt
He showed me the truth and did shout
He took my hand and yelled you’re a star
Don’t give up now when you’ve come this far
Exhausted and ready to give up
You re-focused me on the champagne cup
And you brought back my resolution
My energy and ambition, determination
We talked for hours and hugged and kissed
Warm and cosy eating ice cream and life missed
You looked into my eyes, knew with a start
We were one, you and me…a man after my own heart.
