The eyes have been
Far as long as I know
Two windows of the soul
I'm looking out
Somebody is always
Looking in

My Friend
Do we ever really see 
What it is we seek
While taking oh so many
flights on the wings of a stare

All my life I've been trying to get there
the problem is nobody knows
Where it is

All my smiles
Every ounce of my  laughter and cheer

Take my hand darling
Guide me
Confide in me if you will
You soothe me
this ailment you just can not heal
Honey you move me
but in the end I'll be right here standing still
when you finally decide to move on

Love is my house Love is my home
the door is always open to you you're more than welcome to stay awhile
I hope I meet your needs of comfort
plus whatever lush requirements of slumber you may want

But, Don't, 
PLEASE!
Get too comfortable
Cause when it gets too dark or late
I'm going to have to ask you to leave

Maybe a long way from the right
not too far from the wrong

But since I've been alone brother and sister

Nothing has been permanent
Everybody is just a
