Love In Her Eyes

Two years ago your eyes shown 

With a kind of light I wish I understood.

Happiness captured in flecks of blue, 

Always true, but the truth is not all it should be

I can remember the day I met you

Your shirt didn't match your shoes and I told you so

That night we kissed underneath the moon

You said how did I get to be so lucky?

What I didn't say was I felt lost there.

And always I find that I can pretend to love you

and I can pretend to love someone else too

but every time I feel something new

I push and I fight I scream and I bite

but always I'm stuck here waiting

for my soul with love in her eyes.

 

Last year your eyes shown

with a kind of light I understood

Happiness hiding the fleeting truth

still flecked with blue, but sadder then they should be

I'm sorry that I felt so empty

And slowly I found that I can't love you

and that was just something that was not fair to you

so I had to let your whole heart go 

had to give it to a better home

I can have it back when I'm done waiting

For my soul with love in her eyes
