Your Eyes
Mark Mathis
What happened this morning
I overslept
And i missed your kiss
As i lay in bed
And woke up feeling alone
There are times i wish
I was a persian cat
I'd lay curled up inside your lap
Listening to hear you breathe
Oh your eyes are my place to hide
When the world is closing in on me
You were right when you said that i'd
Be needing you - if you only knew how much
It was me and it was you
In a photo booth
Just to get away
From the crowd that day
And i still hold that picture of you
Of when you crawled out of your silk cocoon
And i carried you from the icu
You were tender
But you were new
