In This Very Moment

In This Very Moment/Your Eyes(by Josner Saintil)
       In this very moment... I look into your eyes
       'Cause it's true you astound me
       Your beauty takes my breath away.
       And it's not because of the clothes you wear
       Or the things you say,
       But the stories your eyes tell me.

       In your eyes, I see something more 
       Than appearance or fatal attraction.
       I see beyond your simple ways.
       I see compassion, love, and hope.
       Hilarious...but I mean the words I say.

       There is something special about you,
        Yet it's hidden deep inside.
       Your heart is slowly growing, 
       A deep ocean bearing the tide.

       No, I'm not much
       Barely a mouthful you would say
       I don't dress or look like the cute guy
       My head is always in a book
       And sometimes I pray.

       But know if you let me,
       I would love you more than any man
       Not just 'cause you're fine
       But because with you...
       I'll have the world in my hands.
