My first impression of you
Was like the sight of flowers in spring
You were a glorious thing to see

My first impression of you
Was something indescribably new
I stood there looking at you
Smiling at me

If you had stepped right out of heaven
It wouldn't surprise me more
I thought you were an angel
From heaven's door

It may sound silly, but true
My heart just stopped
When I caught your eye
So overwhelming
Was my first impression of you
