Today, we’re starting off with “If I’d Met Her In A Cave.”

 

If I'd met her in a cave

in the dark

where no light ever lived

she would still be the brightest thing I'd ever seen

for it always was the way she was

never the way she looked

that made her so beautiful to me

and beautiful she was

though I never let it blind me

for it was only when I closed my eyes

and stood there in that darkest cave

that she truly blinded me

with beauty.
