To Be In Your Eyes

Night time is so lonely

When you hear a sound

But it's only an empty heart

Beating on through the night

A sad, sad drum



And I'm lying here listening

And the raindrops are all glistening

In my dreams and it seems

That the sun never comes



And I want my sad reflection

To go drifting through the skies

To be in your eyes



And I'm waking to this aching

And it's breaking me in two

All the space, all the waste

All the distance between me and you



And the people with their voices

Random choices

Will they ever learn to really see?

Really be on fire when their spirit burns



I want the person inside me

To be someone I'd recognize

If he was in your eyes



So I'm waiting, contemplating

Relocating a faded image in my thoughts

But the memories are like clouds

Try so hard but they never can be caught



But I'm trying, yes, I'm trying

But I'm only lying in the dark

So alone, on my own, no one home



And if love was worth a fortune

Then I'd need a raise

To be in your eyes, to be in your eyes

To be in your eyes, to be in your eyes



I want these words to be the things

I hoped you'd realized

To be in your eyes, to be in your eyes

To be in your eyes, to be in your eyes
