SOON I WON’T FORGET HER NAME
Her wits were sharp
And she was quick to make her points
When I met her
On that sunny June day
In a leadership position
She did excel
But as one of a crowd
She wasn’t at all that way
She was feeling thwarted
And underappreciated
Not knowing how to play
This new social game
Yet there was something
About her that sent a spark
Soon I won’t forget her name
I’ve been one to guard
Against choosing companions
On the basis of
Social standing alone
And I’ve never cared much
About current achievements
I swear that wasn’t
What turned me on
All her accomplishments
Would become insignificant
When I get on her
Wavelength in all ways
I am out to make
A good impression
Soon I won’t forget her name
Set your sights high
And rewards will come
The more you try
The more you are going to get ahead
I can’t be satisfied
With routine results
Soon I won’t forget her name
The sun was high
On the Fourth of July
When I met her
On the beach by the lake
I resolved I would
Be open to new ideas
No matter what
I would have to take
I knew the minute
That I took her hand
That my life would
Never be the same
By the time we walked
The beach at sunset
I knew I won’t forget her name
Set your sights high
And rewards will come
The more you try
The more you are going to get ahead
I can’t be satisfied
With routine results
I am out to make
The most of what I have
Soon I won’t forget her name
