The one l’ve always wanted, it was you.

I did not know, could not imagine, who.

Now like an owl, with wisdom I say, you.

How did I get so wise? What let light through?

It was the gayest laughter straight from you;

It was a mind that left no doubt of who,

Another owl, who lit this owl a-new

With sparks of deepest spirit oh, so true,

Who let me see the happy self of you.

And now that I have seen it I’ll pursue,

And I will do the damndest I can do

To make my future life a part of you!

My course is set, my aim is straight and true;

The one I’ve always wanted, it is you!
