Trembling fear in my mind,
All the courage I try to bind,
I aim to do everything in perfection,
After all, it’s all about the first impression,

Dreamy eyes and heart pure,
Never had such feelings before,
Wanna feel your electrifying charm, I can’t wait,
First date, it’s my first date,

Someone please brew me Felix Felicis,
In matters of love and heart, will it suffice?
Meeting you, Is it my fate?
First date, it’s my first date,

A hundred evenings of hope, I carry in my eyes,
An array of things, I’ve planned for you to surprise,
Girl! Please don’t be late,
First date, it’s my first date,

WhatsApp chats and Skype calls,
My heart to meet you inside howls,
The wait has finally come to an end,
I will finally taste the love’s wind,

My eyes are quenched to see you,
Vocal cords so desperate to talk to you,
Brain cells are ready to discover your inner beau,
My heart is pounding skipping heartbeats few,

I style my hair and wear the best cologne,
I look myself in mirror again and again,
To make sure everything has been rightly set,
First date, it’s my very first date,

On my way, the weather gets changed,
A sudden burst of rain leaving me drenched,
No cab, no bus, I am getting late,
First date, I don’t wanna ruin my very first date,

Somehow I manage to reach on time,
I see you waiting passionately for me,
My feelings for you seem to arouse inside,
The feelings, I am unable to hide,

Irresistible feelings of the naughty heart,
Let me speak it out, they are tearing me inside apart,
I never met someone so angelic and divine,
The moment when the whole world just seems to be mine,

Your cheeks glow softly in the candle light,
The curve of your lips that can easily hypnotise,
The beautiful eyes lovely to gaze,
You seem to be everything for me, I had been dreaming since days,

That nervousness in my voice, outta control,
I wish I could talk through my soul,
So many love stories, I’ve heard and seen,
Were those love or lust, I now know the difference in between,

We just kept looking at each other,
Words were few, and it was over,
But the experience we did share,
It’ll always be there,
A priceless evening without much talking,
I got someone who makes me wanna sing,
Years of crave for love is now quenched,
All thanks to you to make me feel love-drenched,

I have compiled the feelings as promised,
Please make sure nothing gets missed,
Had enough things this evening to anticipate,
First date, it was my very first date,

The most beautiful evening of my life, I must say,
I will cherish this memory night and day,
I hope to have a second date with you soon,
How about somewhere, just us under the moon?

Her sweet words stole my breath,
Her irresistible charm awoke my spirit from death,
Slowly and steadily my heart lost control,
It beats on its own rhythm, rise and fall,

It doesn’t know my thirst,
It experienced this sweet pain very first,
It just beats and I suffer in vain,
Her absence is driving me insane,

Her soul seems familiar since ages,
Her mellifluous voice echoes in my mind nights and days,

My heart is restless, I’ve lost all my sense,
It’ll be quenched by her only presence,
My eyes look for her in every possible sight,
They know nowhere but her angelic face to alight,

Her intense gaze that almost killed me,
Stopped my heart from beating,
Slowly and steadily my eyes lost sleeps,
Love for her from my blood seeps,

My smile resonates with frequency of her memories,
My attention lulled by her caressing love breeze,

I spend each evening in memories of her,
Morning to nightfall, my eyes await her,
The obsession has taken control over my mind,
This craze for her, will she someday find?
I do believe in love, love,
Does she believe in my love, love?

I saw you pass by,
But I didn’t have the courage to tell you,
I had many moments,
But I didn’t really know you feel for me too,

I am going outta my mind,
This feeling is one of a kind,
I can’t stop myself thinking about you,
Even though I don’t really know you,

It’s true love, give me a chance,
I wanna show you,

It’s true love, talk to me once,
I wanna show you,

It’s true love, be with me,
I can’t live without you,

I can sense your smile,
From a thousand mile,
Your beautiful eyes,
Leave me mesmerized,

I haven’t got a chance,
To express my feelings for you,
It’s been days,
I haven’t heard from you,

It’s true love, give me a moment,
I wanna show you,

It’s true love, it’s you and only you,
I can’t stop myself dreaming about you,

O’ Girl, I am crazy about you,
Even though I don’t really know you,

It’s true love, say you have feelings for me too,
My life has no meaning without you,

Its true love, in this world,
I never met a girl like you,

O’ girl, walk with me,
I am lost without you,

It’s true love, it’s you and only you,
Every piece of my writing is about you.

Looking at the starry sky,
I light up the candle high,
Looking for an angel in this soft light,
I wander the way tonight,
Come to me,
Once you are free,

We will fly above rainbow,
Amidst the clouds so high and low,
Just you and me this night,
Far from world and out of sight,

We will walk on ocean wave,
Amidst the storm so strong and brave,
Just you and me this night,
Under the moon and its moonlight,

We will glide with the breeze,
Amidst the rains, between the trees,
Just you and me this night,
Free from worries at this height,

Looking for you in this soft light,
I wander the way tonight,
Come to me,
Once you are free.
