In my eyes

Could you see it in my eyes?

A love partly desperate, eager

Elated in finding a place to go

Like the sun flooding through parting clouds

Finding the green tops of mountains high.

I’m sure it was coming from my eyes

Adoration in effect

When I think back I see the scene in gold;

Your hair and skin

My arms in jacket sleeves

Linked around your neck.

Let me think no more

And keep this memory just like so

I want to leave it like that

I’m sure you remember too

I’m sure you could see it in my eyes.
