Your Eyes

You'd like to take a little moment of time
Apologize for the mistakes that you've done
(And I know what you've done)
I see you contemplatin' what's in your mind
But in the end all ya do is run

(Run. Run. Run. Run. Run.)
(Somebody catch me!)

There's a lie behind your smile
Your eyes betray you
It's been haunting you for a while
Been haunting you for a while

You got dem blues
Darlin', I know you do
'Cause you been hidin' your eyes
Like they don't want me to know they're ashamed of-
You got dem blues
Darlin', I know you do
'Cause baby you been hidin' your eyes
I know you're keeping silent
But I pray you change your mind

(Yeah, I'll be here when your eyes meet mine.)

You'd like to take a little moment of time
To speak your mind
But you don't think its quite alright
You want to fight, have a life
And yet you go to be alone
And deal with this all on your own

(Lone. Lone. Lone. Lone. Alone!)

So you're running from home
To protect those close from sorrow
It's been haunting you for a while
Been haunting you for a while

Oh! Oh! Wa-o-oh!

You got dem blues
Darlin', I know you do
'Cause you been hidin' your eyes
Like they don't want me to know they're ashamed of-
You got dem blues
Darlin', I know you do
'Cause baby you been hidin' your eyes
I know you're keeping silent
But I pray you change your mind

(I'll be here when your eyes meet mine!)

You're afraid. You feel alone
Are you guilty? Are you wrong?
A lot of thoughts running through your mind
Clock is ticking and you're buying your time

Franticly panicking, handling
This problem that you are livin' with
You wish it didn't exist and
I wish it didn't exist 'cause
It's been haunting you for a while
It's been haunting you for a while

You seem to know much more than you told
Your body language contradicts what you're saying

Hey, it's alright. We're here
So just smile. Why don't you stay
For a while
Don't be afraid. Turn back the dial

You got dem blues
Darlin', I know you do
'Cause you been hidin' your eyes
Like they don't want me to know they're ashamed of-
You got dem blues
Darlin', I know you do
'Cause baby you been hidin' your eyes
I know you're keeping silent
But I pray you change your mind

'Cause I know you want to hide
In a place where fear can't find you

You seem to know much more than you told me
But I'll be here to speak the words that will console
When you are afraid. Yeah
Tired hearts and minds are lonely
Deep inside your conscience takes a toll on you
But I'll be here when your heart confronts the pain
