Eyes

Your eyes are the city I get lost in
Your voice is the roadmap showing me every highlight
You laugh is the fleeting glimpse of the sunset skyline

Your eyes are the ocean I've been tossed in
Each wave makes time slower
Each wave I feel lower
Each wave you grow colder
Don't say that it's over

They say eyes are the window to the soul
But I say they are a mirror for the heart
And home is where the heart is
So that city that ocean those eyes that reflected my heart are my home

They say you can't go home again
But I say you can't truly leave
So I look for another city another ocean new eyes to see myself
And they all remind me of you

A pretense of you is not enough
A bitter ocean is not the same
A foreign city is not my home
A reflection in new eyes is not as bright

I need your reflecting gaze
I need your eyes
I need you
