Classic Poem

VERSE

In a word of glitter and glow,
In a world of tinsel and show,
The unreal from the real thing is hard to know.
I discovered somebody who
Could be truly worthy and true,
Yes, I met my ideal thing
When I met you.

REFRAIN

I see your face before me
Crowding my ev'ry dream.
There is your face before me,
You are my only theme.
It doesn't matter where you are,
I can see how fair you are,
I close my eyes and there you are,
Always.
If you could share the magic,
If you could see me too,
There would be nothing tragic
In all my dreams of you.
Would that my love could haunt you so,
Knowing I want you so,
I can't erase
Your beautiful face
Before me.
