From the first moment I seen you eyes, I fell in love with you.
When I was young I was so in love, my eyes could only see you.
My heart pounded really hard every time I was near you.
Just the smell of your cologne drove me wild,
when you were not in site and made me think of you.
I couldn't hardly wait to be with you.
Your strong arms held me tight, I felt real secure and save inside.
When you gave your pretty smile I was real happy with you.
I waited and waited impatiently to see you again.
It took month after month that I finally got to be with you again.
I spoke very little in your mother's tongue.
Our communication was very limited.
The first year we lived together we had communication problems,
because he did not understand my language and I did not understand his.
So we sort of guessed what we meant to say.
But we managed to work it out anyway.
