I waited for just the right moment
to ask her to be me wife
I brought the ring
reserved the restaurant
and picked just the right time
Down on one knee
I took her hand
and slipped the ring on her finger
the place went silent
the waiter stood by with the champane
and then i ask
will you marry me
Her hands went to her face and a tear rolled down her cheek
no she said dont be mad its not you its me
shocked and dismayed I sat back in my seat
for the first time in my life
knowing true defeat.
