« Looking in my eyes»

Night was falling, all in silence
And the world had turned away
Through the shadows, through the distance
We were searching for new ways

Then the clocks all stopped their turning
No more sound, no more gravity

You were looking in my eyes
Like you saw the stars arise
All the words I couldn’t speak
All the dreams I couldn’t reach

You were looking in my eyes
And I knew with one desire
That the world could be reborn
A little brighter, a little truer

You were something like a secret
Like a book without remorse
I forgot the wars and reasons
And surrendered to the force

When your gaze began to tremble
My whole heart began to sway

You were looking in my eyes
Like you saw the stars arise
All the words I couldn’t speak
All the dreams I couldn’t reach

You were looking in my eyes
And I knew with one desire
That the world could be reborn
A little brighter, a little truer

Maybe we just get one moment
To outrun the passing hours
Touch the truth that’s right before us
Before everything turns sour

You were looking in my eyes
And I saw horizons blue
All the words I couldn’t speak
All the dreams I couldn’t live
