The Proposal
_The feel of his hand in mine_
_As we walk among the trees_
_I feel the love inside the air_
_Oh how lovely is the breeze _
__
_As we walk among the trees_
_How beautiful is his smile_
_Oh how lovely is the breeze_
_How more wonderful can this be_
__
__
_How beautiful is his smile_
_As we stop beside a lake_
_How more lovely can this be_
_And then my other hand he’ll take_
__
__
_As we stop beside a lake_
_He looks in to my eyes_
_And then my other hand he’ll take_
_Then he puts something in my hand_
__
__
_He looks into my eyes_
_I feel I cannot speak_
_Then he puts something in my hand_
_Then he caresses my cheek_
__
__
_I feel I cannot speak_
_I feel it not worthy of words_
_Then he caresses my cheek_
_I feel I could fly like the birds_
