Beth DeSombre: Music

• MP3 play whole song, hi-fi (broadband)

Your Eyes

Clock chimes, phone rings, startin’ the day
Move fast, speed up, quick before it gets away
Other people hurrying on
Join ‘em now before the time is gone

But in your eyes I’m patient and gentle
And in your eyes I’ve got nothing but time
And in your eyes I slow down to listen
I like who I am in your eyes

Half full, half gone, never enough
Meanwhile can’t help wishing I had more stuff
I have twice as much as before
Still I wonder couldn’t I have more?

But in your eyes I’m a generous person
And in your eyes I have all I could need
And in your eyes I’m loving and giving
I like who I am in your eyes

Through your eyes I see
A glass that’s twice the size it needs to be

Indecisive awkward and shy
Eyes cast downward as a way of getting by
Others know just how to begin
While I stumble, fall, and try again

But in your eyes I’m a confident person
And in your eyes I have talent and grace
And in your eyes I know what I’m doing
I like who I am in your eyes
I like who I am in your eyes
I’ll be who I am in your eyes
