I saw you in the distance.

I want to know your name

Cause you really piqued my interest

And I hope you feel the same.

The way you looked so lonely

Made me want to find out more.

It's not because I'm horny

And I'm just looking to score.

Please give me a moment

Cause I have a greater purpose

I want to know if what's inside

Matches what is on the surface.

So come with me, we'll just talk

I want to get to know you.

Let's go take a little walk

There's a place I want to show you

Where we can sit and watch the sun set

To all the colors of the palette.

Peaches, oranges, reds and pinks

While we watch the sun sink

You can tell me the things you think.

You will not have to worry

About me trying to touch you.

I'm not in a hurry,

I'm not trying to rush you.

I want to know your essence

I want to learn your mind

I just want you in my presence

To find if you are truly Divine

Someone whom I could call mine

Until the end of time.

I do not want this love

To be about some sex

I want something that's more

About a mutual respect.

I don't want a relationship

That's based only on lust.

I want something that's based

In honesty and trust.

So open up your lonely heart

And let it all spill out

Cause I think it'd be a real nice start

To find what you're about.

What have other men done

To hurt you in the past?

I promise you'll be my only one

and that I learn quite fast.

You will find I'm not a phony one

I want this love to last.

I'll share with you

The sentimental side of me

That resides and hides

Deep down inside of me.

The side that I show to nobody else

Except to the better half of myself.

I'll always keep alive

this flame that's called romance

If only you would give

This longing heart a chance

For our two souls to slow dance

To the rhythm of love

A union that was planned

By the God that's above.
