|
She had the yellow eyes of opal moons |
|
So full of love, how could she see? |
|
He thought he'd drown in them |
|
So he set sail |
|
Gracefully she dreamed him free |
|
The Indian Ocean washed him on her shore |
|
Flat backed on a dirt packed floor |
|
One eye on the door |
|
You're ten thousand miles away |
|
As the birds fly, and you want to die |
|
Because you let her go |
|
You say, you say |
|
Oh when she holds me, nobody told me |
|
All of the fear her love would bring |
|
If you could see me |
|
Would you believe me darling |
|
That all my fear was only love |
|
He had a one time look at paradise |
|
A white light, it was bright to blinding paradise |
|
All of the angels that you can't see |
|
When you're equating love |
|
Equating love, with never being free |
|
And you say, you say |
|
Oh when she holds me, nobody told me |
|
All of the fear her love would bring |
|
If you could see me |
|
Would you believe me darling |
|
That all my fear was only love |
|
She had the yellow eyes of opal moons |
|
You looked away from them too soon |
|
The best I can say to you |
|
Though I don't know when |
|
Is that I know you'll feel this way |
|
I know, I know you'll feel this way again |
|
And next time |
|
Tell her you love her |
|
You're always with her |
|
Even when you are far away |
|
Cause if she could see you |
|
I think she'd believe you darling |
|
That all your fear was only love |
|
All your fear was only love |
