Story of My Life

If you look into my eyes, 
will you believe what you see? 
There's a story inside, 
that's about to unfold. 

You'll need the key to unlock it, 
I keep it in my heart. 
You'll have to earn it, 
but only by my trust. 

If I begin to cry, 
will you feel it in your soul? 
Will you take it to the heart? 

If I told you a secret, 
will you care enough to listen? 
Will you keep your share of silence? 

If I told you I'm a living soul, 
will you understand what I've said? 
I'm a human being, 
can you believe that?
