Late night glow of my PC screen
Charlie81 appears, sight unseen
Witty words flow back and forth
In IRC, a connection's born
Days and weeks turn into more
My heart's invested to its core
Virtual love, but feels so real
Charlie81, what's the deal?
Charlie81, you're my digital dream
More than just text on a screen
Though we've never met face-to-face
You've already won this race
Finally, the day has come
Nerves on edge, my heart's undone
Scanning faces at the gate
For the one that's worth the wait
Anticipation's at its peak
Palms are sweaty, knees are weak
Will reality match my mind?
Charlie81, where are you? I'm blind
Charlie81, you're my digital dream
More than just text on a screen
Though we've never met face-to-face
You've already won this race
Then I see her, wait... her?
Not the 'he' I thought for sure
But in that moment, crystal clear
Love transcends, conquers fear
Charlie81, you're not what I thought you'd be
But my heart still skips a beat
Girl or boy, it doesn't matter to me
Our love story's now complete
Charlie81, my unexpected surprise
Love looks different through these eyes
Online or off, you're all I need
Our happily ever after, indeed
