Innocent Eyes
Late at night as I crawl in bed
Shufflin’ the pillow beneath my head
Thinkin’ what I should have said
All of the where and the whys
Who knows why?
I feel the warmth of you lying near
You seem far away
But somehow still here
Through the dark, a single tear
Streams down from your eye
And you cry
CHORUS
Innocent eyes lookin’ up at me
Infinite pools, a deep mystery
I only wish that I could be
The one you see
I know you see
I understand your fear and pain
The still in the air as before the rain
Hints of lightning and storms again
Thunder from the sky
Clouded skies
CHORUS
Then suddenly a tender touch
Silence now, yet I hear so much
The tears go on and say that such…
Tears from you, say that just…
These tears of ours
Could say that such…
A love’s worth one more try
Can we try?
CHORUS
Innocent eyes lookin’ up at me
Infinite pools, a deep mystery
One more chance and I might be
Who you see
Through those innocent eyes
