When I see your eyes I swear to God
That worlds collide and stars stopped
And turned mesmerised.
There is beauty in those years that can't be changed
Or hid by tens of picture frames
Photographs that I've rearranged
A thousand times in scrapbooks that I've saved.
Once we were young and thin
We grew up slow
Now we're close as kin.
Sail to you on a faded wing.
And you are beautiful
And any boy would be a fool
Not to fall in love with you,
One looks so long at first sight.
Don't you know that you are the best friend
I have found in such a long time
This could be - I could be bound
To turn out alright.
And darling, you,
You even say
All the wrong things right
And now I'm looking for,
Look for the late nights.
True as the years have proved
Such a lot to say and do.
Have the grace that time has strewn;
A modest gift to say that you're the
Only thing in this school
Or overcrowded town
I couldn't do without
I couldn't be without.
Don't you know that you are the best friend
I have found in such a long time
This could be - I could be bound
To turn out alright.
And darling, you,
You even say
All the wrong things right
But now I'm looking for,
Look for the late nights.
We have reached again
My heart was born
When yours was set.
Discovered fire by accident -
I'd say I'm doing alright.
