The eyes of a lover unseen
Eyes wide open,
Windows to the soul,
I see what you've been thinking,
I see that you're not whole.
Take my hand in silence,
Let me lead you home,
And look into my eyes,
So I know I'm not alone.
I will shake my head,
Pretend I do not know,
And you will smile sweetly,
Not wanting yet to go.
Don't close your eyes,
This is no time for sleeping,
Dreams will whisper sweet lies,
But nightmares keep you thinking.
Tears of pure heart bleeding,
I'm sorry I hit a nerve,
Should I go away?
Will you get what you deserve?
You cling on,
Whisper I did no wrong,
And I join you in your sorrow,
Wanting to be strong.
Kiss my tears away,
Hold me until my spirit stills,
And my troubles melt into the evening calm,
Warm and safe within your arms.
Can this be all but a dream?
A safe place amongst the calm?
I see your eyes staring back in mine,
Until the sun rises from the dark...
