[Verse 1 – The First Glance]
Gladys, the first day I saw your face
Back in school, my heart left its place
You walked in, and time stood still
Gladys, you gave my heart its very first thrill
You didn’t speak, but your smile did
It touched a place in me I always hid
I said to myself, “That’s her, that’s the one”
Gladys, my love story had just begun
[Chorus – My Dream Come True]
Gladys, you're the one I waited for
Every heartbeat, every open door
You’re my dream I prayed would come
Now I hold you — my only one
Gladys, your love is warm and true
I thank God every day for you
You’re the best I've ever known
Gladys, you are my heart, my home
[Verse 2 – Years Later]
Gladys, I used to whisper your name
Now I shout it without shame
Five years passed and here you are
Still shining brighter than any star
From a crush to something deep
Your love is a treasure I’ll always keep
Gladys, your heart is gentle and kind
You’re the peace I searched so long to find
[Bridge – Spoken or Softly Sung]
Gladys, you’re not just a girl I liked
You’re the one who changed my life
Every prayer led me to your smile
Gladys, I’ve loved you all this while
🎶 [Final Chorus – Full Heart]
Gladys, you're the one I waited for
Through the years, my heart stayed sure
From teenage days to now grown and wise
You’re the blessing in my skies
Gladys, your name is my sweetest sound
In your love, true joy I’ve found
You're the one my soul adores
Gladys, forever and always — yours
“Gladys… it’s always been you…”
“Gladys, from SHS to forever…”
“Gladys, you are my everything…”
