Something in your eyes

There was a certain face that filled a thousand nights

With all the sweetest dreams and promises of paradise

But that face was gone when the dawn would come and steal you

Yet, I still could feel you waiting just a kiss away

I'd surely know your face

Your love would cast a spell

I'd recognize each curve and line of you, I knew it well

Now at last you're here and I can tell

(Chorus)

Something in your eyes I see

Is all I ever wanted

And something in your smile for me

Is calling out my name

Your eyes, it seems are mirrors of my dreams

In ways I can't explain

And my heart will never be the same

We never said a word as if we'd always known

But through the bittersweet of waiting we were not alone

Now we're close enough for the touch of love to find us

Fantasies designed us

But they never really could begin to measure you

No pictures ever do

And as I watch you framed in sunlight in a sky of blue

I know what my life's been leading to

(Chorus)

Something in your eyes I see

Is all I ever wanted

And something in your smile for me

Is calling out my name

Your eyes, it seems are mirrors of my dreams

In ways I can't explain

And my heart will never be the same

(Chorus)

Something in your eyes I see

Is all I ever wanted

And something in your smile for me

Is calling out my name

Your eyes, it seems are mirrors of my dreams

In ways I can't explain

And my heart will never be the same

And my heart will never be the same
