The Look in Your Eyes
copyright 1994 by Victor Compton

There was a look in your eyes like you might be the one
who was waiting for me to come, and to notice the look in your eyes.
So, we started to speak.  We talked for a week, oh but only
a moment went by.  Still I knew then, that I could die,
for the look in your eyes.

chorus : "Save me!"  your soul cried.
              "I will!"  my soul replied.

Well our hearts were so high that the thought of goodbye, never
even entered our minds.  Life couldn't be so unkind as to tear
us apart.  But, your ship had to sail and our faces turned pale
as friends pulled your body away.....leaving me only today,
with the look in your eyes.

chorus

Now, I hope you return.  I wait, and I yearn, and I learn every
face that I see ; hoping that someone will be the one without lies.
And I don't know your name, oh but I'm not the same,
I have been changed by surprise.  And I watch every ship that comes
in, for the look in your eyes.
