I suppose....
 if i was to try and paint
a pretty picture of you and i
(with words darling, of course)
and how we met...i suppose i would compare it to this:
imagine
if you will
a crowded place
a quiet distracted man
a woman with an understated beauty
and a marvelous perfume
he sits at a table
lost in his own world
oblivious to the noise around him
she walks behind him
a little distracted herself
(life, you know...it will do that to us)
and suddenly he catches a hint of her perfume
his stomach knots
(the scent is sublime)
he lifts his head in a manner almost primal
and follows the scent
to her
she is now at a table of her own
the quiet man has not escaped her notice
and from across this crowded place
they lock eyes
and share a knowing smile
it's like thay know one another already
though they've never met before....

this, my darling
is how i would like to think
that in another world
another life
this is how i would paint a pretty picture
of you
and I
