From Out of Nowhere

Just split from a marriage

That was going nowhere

Working hard to regain

The love he and I no longer shared

  Never thinking about the dating scene

Just working out my life

To rise through all the misery

And forget I was ever a wife

As you stood in my line

At the electronic store

A smile came upon our face

We knew we both wanted something more

You walked up slowly

To see what you could find

We both started blushing

We knew it was our time

You asked me for my number

As I began to write

You told me you wanted a date

Somehow this just felt right

We set a date to go out

And much to my surprise

I was leaving work one night

And you were in my eyes

I asked "What are you doing here?"

You smiled with a grin

You said "I've been thinking about you

I want this love story to begin"

You really touched my heart

For waiting for so long

Even though I wasn't expecting you

I saw all your charm

So tonight is the night

Of our first date

I talked to you on the phone

We both can hardly wait

We are both like children

In a candy store

We have so much in common

Who could ask for anything more
