I haven’t slept in days and my mind has gone astray
I can’t find the words to say that all I loved has gone away
The way your eyes
Reflected the sunrise
The way your smile
Reflected mine
The way your words
Filled the air like strings of pearls
Around your neck
Fleeting beauty I know I’ll forget
And for all my dreams of waking up
With you and the sun laughing with our eyes
For one more minute by the river with you
Is all I need. This was all for you.
The way your eyes
Reflected the sunrise
The way your smile
Reflected mine
The way your words
Filled the air like strings of pearls
Around your neck
Fleeting beauty I know I’ll forget
I haven’t slept in days and my mind has gone astray
I can’t find the words to say that all I loved has gone away
