On a park bench one sunny afternoon
Sat a young boy and a girl about seventeen
As we stood so closely by watched them hold each other's hands
On their faces love had written we're making plans
Then he said to her you're my guiding light
Then she said to him you make my whole world seem so bright
Then we saw their books of Braille and that neither one could see
And I thought how close they must be
Such tenderness my eyes have never seen
Two young lovers both just in their teens
Though their world gives them no light
They see much more than you and me
Don't you know how close they must be
Then a car stopped just a few steps away
And a voice said Jim and Jeannie it's time to go
With their hands still clutched so tight
Helping each other to the car
