Your Foresty River Eyes
I guess I figured you’d be merciful to me
You and your foresty eyes are made beautifully
I guess I had an infatuation towards you
And your lovely, foresty eyes that twinkle anew
Like stars, you shine
Wish you were mine
Sometimes, I’m sick of trying
At times, I catch myself lying
Lying to myself once more
Your foresty river eyes — they soar
I adore you for the times we’ve spent
There’s love in store for us all in this tent
In this tent of happiness and cheer
In this tent of joyousness and no fear
Lying to myself once more
Your foresty river eyes — I adore…
I suppose I’m the one to blame for our sentimental rhymes
You and your foresty river eyes have fallen away time after time
Into the ocean of a thousand lies…I thought about times
We spent in the autumn time after doing some summer haze crime
Like the sun, you shine
Wish you were truly mine
Sometimes, I’m sick of sighing
At times, I catch myself dying
A little inside as the tide of life
Sucks me into its shameful strife
Wish you were truly mine
Like the sunshine, sunshine
Lying to myself once more
Your foresty river eyes — they soar
I adore you for the times we’ve spent
There’s love in store for us all in this tent
In this tent of happiness and cheer
In this tent of joyousness and no fear
Lying to myself once more
Your foresty river eyes — I adore…
Lying to myself once more
Your foresty river eyes — they soar
I adore you for the times we’ve spent
There’s love in store for us all in this tent
In this tent of happiness and cheer
In this tent of joyousness and no fear
Lying to myself once more
Your foresty river eyes — I adore…
I let it collapse — my rose pedals from my heart
Best to keep it water under the bridge as I tear apart
I guess I figured you’d be merciful to me
You and your foresty eyes are made beautifully
I adore them wholeheartedly to the core
Now, let’s watch my wings as they soar
