It can happen out of the blue
Without reason or rhyme
When you least expect it to
It can happen any time
It may be in the spring or fall
Morning or dead of night
Some day you will hear the call
And finally see the light

So where will you be
When love finds you
When it lands on your heart
From out of the blue
No chance to run
From feelings so true
So what will you do
When love finds you

Will you rejoice in its splendor
Or recoil from its touch
Let it make your heart tender
Or will it be too much
You've been hiding in the dark
And lonliness of night
But when you feel that spark
Can't stop the breakthrough of light

So where will you be
When love finds you
When it lands on your heart
From out of the blue
No chance to run
From feelings so true
So what will you do
When love finds you

Thank you very much to Jeffrey for honoring me with his writing once again!!!!  It has been fun as always my friend.  We make a great team!!

Is this a rhetorical question?
Great teamwork- enjoyed it.

First I must thank Jenn for taking the time to lend her talent to this piece. I really enjoy the process of collaberating with her.

Jenn, My friend we must keep doing this. It was fun as always

Jamie, YES, you got the point Nobody knows where they'll be or what they'll do until they find true love
