First Time I Met You

by: Dan Gibson, 01/15/2001


First time I met you
You were by the lake
I held you in my arms
Tears streaming down your face

You said your good friend had died
I wanted you to know I was by your side
You seemed so alone that night
Yet beautiful, shimmering in the moonlight

My whole being felt your fears
My shoulder for you to shed your tears
I will always be your friend in love
I will be your protector from above
