When I Look In Your Eyes

When I look in your eyes, I see the wisdom of the world in youreyes

I see the sadness of a thousand goodbyes

When I look in your eyes

 

And it is no surprise, to see the softness of the moon in youreyes

The gentle sparkle of the stars in your eyes

When I look in your eyes

 

In your eyes, I see the deepness of the sea

I see the deepness of the love

The love I feel you feel for me

 

Autumn comes, summer dies

I see the passing of the years in your eyes

And when we part there will be no tears no goodbyes

I'll just look into your eyes

 

Those eyes, so wise

So warm, so real

How I love the world, your eyes reveal.
