Once there was a night
Beneath a moonlit sky
I came across a girl
Whose eyes could hold no lie
The night before the New Year
On the bridge of dreams
This girl I saw
An angel it seems
The angel smiled
As I grew near
It caught me off guard
The last I expected
Encounter of a beauty
All but through and dejected
Estella was her name
Its meaning, she wore it well
She breathed of light, draped in sheer
Celestial beauty, who could quell?
Introductions were brief
I felt shaken to the core
I thought I recognized her face
Though I'd never seen her before
Something about her eyes
And the way she smiled
Hooked itself onto my mind
And made me need more
Then we got to talking
Getting me addicted
To the rhythm of her voice
Nursing me blindingly
On the way she said my name
And when she smiled
Nothing made much sense
Where else could I go?
The rules do not apply
I didn't know
And I remember telling her stories
About me, about my childhood
I don't know why I trusted her
But I knew that I could
So darling take it slow
We could stay here till dawn arrives
Or if it comes first
Until sleep sets in our eyes
And in that moment only
Did I think to myself
"It can't be love yet,
But it sure is something else"
