I saw her name in the stars last night

The moon was her face.

The only thing I dreamt of

Was her fond embrace.

Her olive eyes were perfect.

Her loveliness so real

I wished that I weren't dreaming.

This is truly how I feel.

I can't reveal my fondness

For her elegant beauty

For I have a destiny

A future, purpose, duty.

I must not let myself be tempted

By what I want the most

When I see her I will be

Nothing but a ghost.

But I am lying to myself

I cannot stay away.

I can't believe that those few words

Took so long to say.

I must tell her right now

That I love her above all else

And in the future, maybe

We will hear wedding bells.
