Lyrics
I Still See Your Eyes 1. Woke up again today, and still you weren’t there, Except for just a single strand of your long silky hair. I got dressed, and went about another lonely day, Not quite understanding why you had to go away. Ch. But sometimes late at night, I still see your eyes. In the early morning light, I still see your eyes. 2. I used to tell you I was just an ordinary guy. You’d smile at me, and say ‘no way’, and then you’d show me why. You shared things from your world with me, and I shared mine with you. And I became a better man, with everything we’d do. Ch. Each night, in my dreams, I still see your eyes. Everywhere, it seems, I still see your eyes. Br. Laughing, crying, running, playing, will it come again? I believe I’ll see you someday, but I don’t know when. You changed my life immeasurably, but you weren’t allowed to stay. And now all I can think to do, is bow my head and pray. 3. You used to tell me that some day, I’d fall in love with you, I’d shake my head, and kiss your face, and say ‘that can’t be true’. Fear of pain had blinded me, to what was in plain sight. But I’d love to hear ‘I told you so’, ‘cause Marti, you were right. Ch. Walking down the street, I still see your eyes. In every face I meet, I still see your eyes. 4. We’ve both had others in our lives, but this time was the best. The time with you was worth more than a hundred times the rest. Your passing is so hard to take, the sun has lost its gleam. But thanks to you, I finally know, exactly what love means. Ch. Sometimes, through the day, I still see your eyes. As I go along my way, I still see your eyes. Sometimes, in the rain, I still see your eyes. But it never dulls the pain, I still see your eyes. Spoken at end: Love is patient. Love is kind. It does not envy. It does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, It is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not rejoice in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.* *Taken from 1 Corinthians 13:4-8.
