To Be In Your Eyes

Night time is so lonely
When you hear a sound
But it's only an empty heart
Beating on through the night
A sad, sad drum

And I'm lying here listening
And the raindrops are all glistening
In my dreams and it seems
That the sun never comes

And I want my sad reflection
To go drifting through the skies
To be in your eyes

And I'm waking to this aching
And it's breaking me in two
All the space, all the waste
All the distance between me and you

And the people with their voices
Random choices
Will they ever learn to really see?
Really be on fire when their spirit burns

I want the person inside me
To be someone I'd recognize
If he was in your eyes

So I'm waiting, contemplating
Relocating a faded image in my thoughts
But the memories are like clouds
Try so hard but they never can be caught

But I'm trying, yes, I'm trying
But I'm only lying in the dark
So alone, on my own, no one home

And if love was worth a fortune
Then I'd need a raise
To be in your eyes, to be in your eyes
To be in your eyes, to be in your eyes

I want these words to be the things
I hoped you'd realized
To be in your eyes, to be in your eyes
To be in your eyes, to be in your eyes
