His eyes sparkled like diamonds,
his heart was pure and true,
he had a smile beyond delight
and he told me "I love you"

his laughter soared right through me
like no ones ever has
and he had a way about him
that let him see me as

the woman I was on the inside
and of course the little girl too,
why he could see so much of me
there wasn't much I could do,

but run away for fear of,
him seeing me more than I,
and then I'd run right back to him
and give it another try,

until the day I ran to far
and couldn't return to him
and now in darkest lonely nights
I sigh and think of Tim.
