If your eyes were stars
Up in the sky each night
That shone upon my heart in pain
They'd ease the ache
That's caused by time
And my heart
Would only ache in vain
For eyes that shine
With such desire
Will never add to what I fear
For I feel a warmth
Upon my soul
That comes to me
When you are near
And if I can I'll hold those eyes
Forever in my mind
To keep that warmth
That's deep inside
When you eyes have held mine
I know!
That I will never touch
The warmth so deep in you
For someone else
She holds the key
Alas I know it's true
She holds you
In her arms each night
She has you by her side
But I'm the one
who has that warmth
so very deep inside
You gave me that
One distant night
so very long ago
That look you gave
When you smiled at me
I never will let go
For it was a fleeting touch
The only touch
Of you I'll ever have
But then
Did it pass so fleetingly
Or is it there again?
