This is a previously published poem from another collection but I'm posting again as another poem 'The Girl that got away' is a continuation of this.

This girl she beckons me

From across the sea

I can't resist her call

I can't resist her at all

There is something about her

Is she the one?

Will I ever find out?

Will she be like my sun?

             Was it fate that our paths crossed?

            To help me come back from being lost?

                  The only way that I'll know

                        Is if I get up and go

I look at her photograph

Mysterious grey eyes

Her beautiful face

I can memorise

I hope one day to meet so                               
Our hearts can entwine

When that day finally comes

I'll ask her to be mine

I want to know about her

Who is she?

One day I'll sail or fly

To the girl across the sea

A thousand galloping horses couldn't keep us apart

Is this girl my destiny? Will she capture my heart?

I can see us in the future

Hand in hand on walks in the park

And Street lamps will flicker

From the power of our hearts that spark

Sat on a bench reading poetry from a book

Cuddling at the pub in a secret inglenook

Loving eyes over tables sharing milkshakes in cafes

Walking you home and kiss you in some shop doorways

Underneath umbrellas and dancing in the rain

A few whispered words your heart I hope to attain

I've no idea what will happen

But what will be will be

This song I wrote for you my love

The girl across the sea

The hottest girl I never knew

The greatest thing I never had

What you done to me girl?

I got this feeling real bad

With that sweet choclip on that

Sexy smile

You really melt my heart

Girl of the Emerald Isle

There is something about her

Will I ever find out?

Is she the one?

Of that I have no doubt
