Every Time I Look Into Your Eyes
Every time I look into your eyes
Something breaks inside
My lips don’t turn, my stomach churns
When I reminisce the beautiful times.
Every time I look into your eyes,
I starve to find that love.
But all I get is muffled cries,
Hidden somewhere behind your mesmerizing orbs.
Every time I look into your eyes,
I regret every single time I waved you away.
Oh how I wish I could go back in time
When you were the start and end of my day.
Every time I look into your eyes,
I gasp at the hatred they radiate.
I’d change it all in the roll of a dice
But you’ve got too much on your plate.
Yeah, I do. I still love you! Broken up or not.
Take me back, just this once.
I’ll give you the reasons you want.
I realised that I made a big mistake
When I said I needed space.
Now that I am sure you are all I need,
You don’t want anything to do with me.
Your guard is up, I know why.
I just left- without so much of a goodbye.
Now that I need you? You don’t need my lies…
But all I want is to look into those eyes.
Because every time I looked into your eyes,
I was proud to say you’re mine
But I guess that’s what is life
And you lose when you cross the line.
