Hazel Eyes
03:55
|

Your eyes are so dangerous
And they glisten for me
Pulling like the moon
Against the depths of the sea
And I long to stay all night
Between the fall and the rise
And your dangerous
Hazel eyes
They meet the smile that forms
Upon your lips in times of joy
And if it’s ever wiped away
I know my duty for the day
For all that’s light in the world
Is trapped inside
Your smiling
Hazel eyes
The dealer deals the cards
Of life and love
But I have a strong hand
When you’re in my arms
And I wish I could pull
All the pain from your eyes
Carry it in my own
To make all your burdens mine
So I could stay all night
Between the stars in the sky
And your beautiful
Hazel eyes

Steps in Sync
02:46
|

And we were walking
Side by side
Steps in sync
My nerves awry
Down the street
With dusk’s light
As the evening
Turned to night
Wondering how
I got to be here
Out of the hovel
And sharing your cheer
Sharing the light
Of the setting sun
Which I've placed
My dreams upon
And as I sit here
On the bank
You’re skipping stones
Out of your hand
I take it in my own
And I say
All I’ve longed
To say

Call You Mine
02:50
|
|||
And why is it
That when I finally get the chance
To hold you
When I finally get the chance
To tell you
How beautiful you are
And to call you mine
That my mind focuses
Not on the fact that I am with you
But on the seemingly inevitable conclusion
That there will come a time
When I no longer get the chance
To hold you
When I no longer get the chance
To call you mine

My State of Mind
04:12
|
|||
The seagulls are driving me insane
The postman hammering on every door
The beep of his machine
More hammering
And worst of all
The unfinished manuscript
In front of me
Suddenly it goes quiet
Except for the low rumble of traffic
And a song that I can’t quite make out
And I miss them, I miss them
The seagulls, the postman.
For I no longer have anything
Left to blame for my
State of mind
Here we go
We're going down
Again
My mind escapes me
Ah, for some relief
And it returns with thoughts
I dare not repeat
And I miss them, I miss them
The seagulls, the postman.
For I no longer have anything
Left to blame for my
State of mind
Here we go
Yeah we're going down
Again
