When we first met you’d just turned 20
Then you spoke and the weather changed from rain to partly sunny
The wind blew your hair to the side
And I caught a glimpse of the future in your eyes
On a boat for a Marine Biology class, I asked where you were from, you said Queens
A Sam Cooke song popped in my head, sung by Prince Akeem!
Senior year of college, we studied and dated in between
Both getting A’s and B’s in our Biology classes, that semester was like a dream!
I wished that we’d met sooner, but here’s the funny thing
Fate made us wait, I had a different major as a Freshman and you were just 16!
I’d seen you around campus but we both had different scenes
I recall saying hello in passing as we’d both come and go
After few weeks of studying together, I asked if you’d like to see a show
You said yes, then went up to your dorm to change for our first date
I said the movie starts at ten, but first we’ll get some din, can I pick you up at 8?
