Lost Senses

Lost Senses

We looked each other in the eyes
Our promise not to lie
Your eyes are my mirror
My chance to see what you see in me
Until today that I can look so deeply into your eyes again
The confidence, like a sunrise, is now shrouded by rainfall
I wonder, why you still look at me that way
What you’re thinking, what’s behind
Don’t tell me, but I want to know

It’s been so long since we’ve touched
Your touch, like velvet to my skin
A seal, the seal for what we have
My chance to feel, what you feel in me
Until today, when I can feel your touch again
The trust, so true, is now stumped with hesitation
I wonder, why you still stay here this night
What you’re dreaming, what’s behind
Don’t tell me, but I want to know

The sound of your voice
How I miss to hear your voice
That has not ceased to resound in my head
My chance to feel the feeling of the sweet harmony our voices could compose.
Until today, when I can hear your voice again
Why is it so hard to talk, to tell me what’s on your mind
I wonder, why you still come to look for your missing melody
What you’re feeling, what’s behind
Don’t tell me, but I want to know

The smell, the smell of your presence
The essence, only the sightless could appreciate to its full worth
The sweet essence, still got me going crazy
My chance to breathe you into my heart
Until today, when I can smell that familiar scent again
I wonder, why you still haven’t forgotten us
What you’ve been yearning, what’s behind
Don’t tell me, but I want to know

The taste, the taste of your kiss
After all this time I thought I had everything,
then I realized what I was missing
My Chance to taste what till today I cannot explain
Until today, when I have you here again…

Now I know why you still look at me that way
Now I know why you still stay here this night
Now I know why you still return for that missing melody
Now I know why you still haven’t forgotten us

Though I don’t know exactly what…
What you’re thinking…
What you’re dreaming…
What you’re feeling…
Or what you’re yearning…

Don’t tell me, but it feels like love…
