Your Eyes and Mine
I hate that sappy, mushy stuff
When the girl pours her heart out to the guy
But what do I do when not seeing you
Makes me want to cry?
I've been warned and told about this thing
That I've pulled myself into
It feels so right, I shuddder so...
Because I'm lonely without you
But are you real, do you really care
Have you had others just like me?
Am I a number, am I a play
That gives you pleasure to see?
I don't understand why you like me
It's hardly happened before
You say I'm foony, you say I'm cute
Yet I wonder if there is more
More than you're telling- more than you
More than meets my eye
For this innocent glaze of glistening blue
Is so succeptible to a well-played lie
It only makes sense- you're playing a game
By kissing my hand and hair
When you put your arm on my shoulder
I am displaced from everywhere
Except from the person next to me
The guy I've tried hard to ignore
I don't understand why you like me
It's never happened this way before
Almost all I do is think about you
The things we've said and done
And smile at the moments back in time
When this entire relationship had begun
Still I hate this sappy crap
When the girls tell it all to the guys
Yet it's all I do, just think of you-
And your playful, glistening eyes
