I’ve looked round a long time
Seen a lot of pretty faces
Been caught up in subtle graces
Obsessed with midnight nightmares
And their maddening inkling traces
But the light from your smile
Is the absolute greatest of all

Eyes of blue like the sky
Every time I see you I can’t
Help but let off a big sigh
How can I hold an angel
When heaven is really far away
From this mortal existence
There must be a price to pay

Beholding such beauty hurts
The strain, the want, the lust
Especially in a cruel world
Where you’re not sure who
You can absolutely trust
The mind is a tool
That thru neglect rusts

But when the heart takes over
And you can’t use your brain
A lucky four-leaf clover
Is all the luck you’ve got
Raging emotion leaves a stain
You don’t wash out with anything
But with you, the greatest of all
