One Fine Gentleman

Allow yourself to stop, think, pause and reflect
While you may as well close your eyes
To picture a night that you would never neglect;
The very night that made you realize
Many things you do I've learned to appreciate
And without any questions asked or inquired
To contradict the essence of fate,
I must tell you, my sweetheart, I'm still inspired;
Let alone, I remain to be very intrigued
By your various manners of making sweet love
Something provided when I was really in need;
Til this day, you're the first and last thing I think of.

A gentleman is whom I have come to be,
And a lady is whom I have come to know;
So make this moment, the turning point to see
Where is the next place we shall need to go;
I usually take little chances or no chance
To make love one of the first things assured
Unless there is really more romance
Of which I could be or feel secure;
Sweetie, I need you to just envision
This rare night as our very own special night;
A grand night of spectacular incision
Of a passionate love one cannot try to fight.

As you look around the home
After you have taken a step from naked air,
You see nothing but candles wherever you roam
And petals of red roses on the side everywhere;
You walk, then stop for moment to smell
The lovely candles and fragrant flowers
Now, image speaks words a mouth cannot tell
As you see me again from a lifetime of long hours,
But the kitchen is not a place to wait
When I have set up a nice table for two;
So I rush you to that table without a plate,
Yet with wine glasses; one for me and one for you.

I light that candle on the table
And bring you the red wine;
I want to prove myself as the only one able
To make you feel that we shall fare just fine;
Preparing the table with simple dishes
Of my day's labor from slaving over a stove so hot,
I would be delighted to command your wishes
Starting with tonight after I reach the right spot;
Let us do wine and dine like those of wealth,
Because everything I do is for you
And this is the night you need no frets of health;
You deserve the best offer of what I could do.

Allow me to play a tad of music so soft
To relax your mind from all the tension;
You are a certified angel who was once aloft
and you also have all my attention;
I need to learn to love a unique someone
So why should I not start with you?
You are the one to whom I belong
And I would like to make dreams come true;
Please take my hand and let me lead;
I shall love you with the utmost romance;
I have come this far and I'll get on my knee to plead
Just for this opportunity to start to slow dance.

Imagine a night like this;
If you claim a gentleman like me,
Then there shall not be a thing to miss
And this, you shall see.
