If My Heart Had Eyes
If My Heart Had Eyes
If my heart had eyes,
I would have seen
What you felt inside.
I would have seen it on your face
Even if hiding it you tried.
I would have seen how much it hurt
Each time I was so mean
That it brought tears to that face
That meant so much to me
I would have seen the pleasure that you brought
Each time you entered the same room
The pleasure that I felt
With each tender kiss I sought,
I would have seen the kind of joy
That only can begin
When a man really loves his girl,
And she in love with him.
But alas, my heart does not have eyes
For it still cannot see
The beautiful love your smile brings
Every time you look at me.
But even without those eyes
I see you finally now
How much I love what I now see
Your faithful love endow
Your heart and mine are both unsighted
As it was meant to be
So that all we truly finally see
Is us, just you and me.
