Lyrics - The Eyes

The secret thoughts inside our heads
Are always hidden often left unsaid
Wherefore the way things are
We sometimes hurt in word or deed
We smother sentiment, disguise our need
Our lives revolving round
Old pictures turning brown
  When you struggle to be heard
I can hear your every word
You say to me
For I can see
Any anger you conceal
Disappears when I can feel
Your eyes on me
Your eyes can see
In those you trust, there is a friend
From those you fear, your conscience will defend
Beyond the webs we weave
No eyes deceive
  repeat Chorus twice
  When you struggle to be heard
I can hear your every word
You say to me
For I can see

A love song, written for Ant's sweetheart (ahhhh!) at the time.
