Does It Matter

She sat in the cafe
Thinking about her day
How it was so long
And how her love life was so wrong

Is there anyone out there for me
Tall, dark, and handsome
But she was soon to find her answer

She raised her head to see 
A guy approach her table
He had no name tag, but a label
He was tall, handsome, but he wasn't dark

She had a feeling that slowed her heart
She said to herself, she couldn't, she wouldn't dare
He smiled with interest, this was way too different
My name is Paul, can I ask you yours

She thought they came from two different worlds
And she wasn't that type of girl
He told her how beautiful she where to him
And how he would love to take her out

She tried to speak, but nothing came out
She was in complete shock
She finally said my name is Brenda
While his blue eyes stared at her

She was thinking what people would think
But her heart said yes
When her brain was saying no
But I would be different, and say yes

And she did
