Somewhere In Your Eyes
If the dawn cannot wake then the sun will not rise
And there will be no beauty or blue in the sky
But I would trade It all just to be a reflection
Somewhere in your eyes
I breathe your breath
and hold your hand
I remember the moments
Footprints in the sand
Never will they wash away or fade with time
Your beauty everlasting a soul divine
Somewhere in your eyes
Just beneath the stars
Love cuts deep and leaves scars
All along my heart to the depth of the soul
Hemorrhaging memories as I grow old
Saline covered silk with a spirited smile
Summer whispers stay awhile
Floating entwined with the smell of youth
A Jasmine scented breeze of inalienable truth
Thunder pounding like a beating heart
Tearing at the seams and ripping it apart
Till the rains pour in and offer a new start
Not the same, no it can never be
The past it weeps beneath our tree
With its carved initials and minutes passed
By a stream where time flows fast
Somewhere in your eyes
Is the light of day
It is that love which illuminates the darkest night
And helps me find my way
