A NICE OLD MAN

A NICE OLD MAN

A nice old man once asked me,
"what are you going to do,
are you going thru life alone,
or find a love so true"?,
I told this man, my story,
of how my life had gone,
how I have been so lonely,
for so very long,
but that I 'd been searching
and I had finally found,
the one I want beside me,
to keep me on the ground,
I told him all about you,
about what you mean to me,
I told him that your love is true,
and will last for eternity,
this man had set me thinking,
why was I holding back,
tears made my eyes start blinking,
cause my life had been so black,
when I turned to tell him,
what I'd wanted to tell you for so long,
there was no one there,
the nice old man was gone,
I ask you now my darling,
I ask on bended knee,
I ask you now my darling,
will you marry me?.
