Lightly tapping the window pane
But in the darkness of the hall
I heard my name you softly call
I know not if ‘twas little children’s feet
Running around to the falling rain’s beat
But I heard your footsteps, your arms spread wide
My heart started pounding, I wanted to run and hide
I know not if ‘twas the look in your eyes
Or if it was because I felt my heart rise
Or if ‘twas a new feeling had just been found
Nothing moved, pray, for the pattering rain sound
I know not if ‘twas a wool blanket in the
Dull winter gloom
Or if it was a warm fire in a
Cold chilly room
I know not if ‘twas a warm shower
After a day in the snow
But as I felt your arms embrace me
I moved not a toe
I know not if ‘twas a young mind
Grown wise
But as I looked into your eyes
I felt your eyes grow all the more kind
I know not if ‘twas a gleaming light
Or if ‘twas the rainbow shining bright
But in your eyes I saw a mystery
A sure sign that we were meant to be
