Beautiful Eyes

There is a world behind your eyes,
A secret sea beneath your skies,
And every time you look at me,
I lose the shore I used to see.

Your eyes don't simply catch the light,
They hold the stars that wake at night,
They say the words your lips conceal,
And somehow make the silence feel.

I've seen them laugh, I've watched them ache,
I've seen the little storms they make,
Yet even when they're filled with rain,
I'd choose to look at them again.

So don't look away when I come near,
Let me find everything you hide, my dear.
For of all the wonders beneath these skies,
I'd still get lost in your beautiful eyes.
