The sunset’s in your eyes,
Throwing away all ties
To this mortal plane.
My god, I’m going insane.

Driven there by your hair
The chestnut locks,
My heart, it knocks
Then beats and pounds
Oh, just to hear your voice,
To hear the sounds-

No matter the words
Like fluttering birds
Flying away from me,
Too far to see.

Leaving behind
Only the memory
Of the lyrical melody,
Forever in my mind.


Even in my dreams
There love gleams,
Not as clear as life
But we’re together
And no strife.

Hand in hand we walk,
Nonchalant we talk
Almost too glad to wake,
But true happiness
Dreams do not make.

Contentment shall not be mine,
No emotion so divine
Until I can hold you in my arms
And truly say, "No alarms
And no surprises."

This I realize
Every time I look
Into your eyes.
