I saw it in Your Eyes

I saw it in Your Eyes

A Poem by Donald Cole

I’ve been looking a long time now

Since I first met you

Trying to find out how it is

You reach me like you do

I’ve been searching in your eyes

To see what’s really there

Looking deep for in your mind

Something draws me, do I dare

I’ve been trying to reach to you

In a special way

As a friend would look to another

To lighten up their day

I wondered if you’d fix my heart

The way it used to be

Even mend it just a little

Would you stand by me?

I saw it in your eyes last night

Can’t tell you what it was

But I’ve a feeling down inside

You’d be gone just because

I heard it in the words you thought

I was looking in your eye

For every word spoke with your lips

I heard you say goodbye

So down the road I say I’ll go

Can’t stand here very long

Only one thing to make me crazy

Could my heart be wrong?

As I slowly walk away

My hope still walks behind

Maybe this girl that warms my blood

Will come and change my mind.
