Can’t You See?

She smiles at me

I’m smiling back

But does she see?

Her smile rips right through me

Her eyes they make me go crazy

Her spirit can lift me up

I can reach the sky

Does she know,

She’s all I see when I close my eyes?

My heart’s stained the stage light floor,

Her smile’s a language I’ve not heard before

Her eyes are a starlight blue,

Mine deepen, and say, ‘I’m in love with you’

My hands shake as I hold her tight,

I stroke her hair, and in my arms, she cries

I tell her things will be alright

Can’t she see the love that’s in my eyes?

She’s the reason that the sun comes out

To light the day

The only one that keeps me dreaming

When dreams seem to fade away

She’s the light in my eyes

The only one I think about at night

She talks to me

I try to reply

But I can’t speak

We’re in a crowd

Background volume loud

Despite the sound, your lullaby seems to always drown them out

I wish you all the luck

Go on and light the sky

I have to let you go

Though this is really hard

I know I have to say goodbye

She is the sweetest one I know,

She enters stages, and a warm light glows

I watch as she’s taken by her soul,

She loves her heart out, and passion shows

My hands shake as I hold her tight,

I hold her hands, and in my arms, she cries

She dreams she’ll be alright,

Dries her eyes, and stands up to the skies

She’ll dream until her life is over,

And when she wakes she’ll live within the stars,

She’ll pack her heart and then,

The loving starts again

Know your worth, and you’ll go far

Know your worth, and you’ll go far

You’re the reason that the sun comes out

To light the sky

The smile you have

Is enough to make the angels cry

You’re the light in my eyes

You’re the fire in my heart

That can’t be put out

I hold her hands, and in my arms, she cries

She dreams she’ll be alright,

Dries her eyes within the sky,

You smile at me,

I’m smiling back

Can’t you see?
