How am I to know
that on the night we met
stars shined upon us both
and a love between us set
How am I to know
we would fall for each other's charm
delighting each other lovingly
and into each others' arms
How am I to know
one was taken far above
with the angels you danced so high
and then told we were in love
How am I to know
that you had been here before
you had experienced the euphoria
and knew what passion had in store
How am I to know
that to you it was now for ever
in me you had found your soul mate
would you leave me, you said never
How am I to know
you would be the rhythm in the songs I sing
in the poems I would recite
and the dances to you I'd bring
How am I to know
that you were the beauty in every flower
in every animal and bird
and would be in all my living hours
How am I to know
this wild heart of mine would soon be tamed
erasing all I could see about me
my loving heart now within you claimed
Now I do
