Those Eyes, Though

After about a thirteen year break from Guitarnoise Songwriters' Forum, (and from songwriting), I am back. Comments, please:

She shows me the reflection of myself

Then leaves me sitting on her little shelf

Longing for another chance to see

Those eyes that drive the nails into me

Oh, oh, those eyes, though

She looks into the very depths of me

Her gaze breaks me down and sets me free

She views the inner workings of my soul

But, oh, oh, those eyes, though!

Oh, oh, those eyes, though

Setting myself up for the fall

Standing myself up against the wall

Tying my own blindfold on

Loading the gun with which she shoots me down

Those eyes!

But, oh, oh, those eyes, though!

But, oh, oh, those eyes, though

Those eyes can melt the sun from the sky

Those eyes can tell the truth from a lie

Those eyes can build or tear apart

Those eyes can mend or break a heart

Those eyes!

Oh, oh, those eyes, though!

Oh, oh, those eyes, though

Living all alone within my mind

No matter where I run, those eyes can find

I could not hide from them, nor would I try

They know the very nature of my soul

Oh, oh, those eyes, though

Don't turn those eyes away from my own

Until they've discovered every secret I hold

Then let their softness envelope me

'Til then I'm trapped by their mystery

Oh, oh, those eyes, though

Setting myself up for the fall

Standing myself up against the wall

Tying my own blindfold on

Loading the gun with which she shoots me down

Those eyes!

But, oh, oh, those eyes, though!

But, oh, oh, those eyes, though

Those eyes can melt the sun from the sky

Those eyes can tell the truth from a lie

Those eyes can build or tear apart

Those eyes can mend or break a heart

Those eyes!

Oh, oh, those eyes, though!

Oh, oh, those eyes, though

Oh, oh, those eyes, though!

Oh, oh, those eyes, though
