For Your Eyes Only

Oh that sweet love we crave
Freely given would enslave
Yes that yearning to belong
Just like the words to a song

Those feelings of sincerity
As love sleeps in parity
Slumbers deep, deep within
Purist hearts, dreams begin

Beyond the stars at rainbows fall
Dawns first light or sunsets call
I will reap this love I crave
And live the dream that she gave
