SOMETIMES

There's a look in your eyes I can't explain
 it was a fleeting moment and I felt pain
 I turned my head, I knew you are looking
 I saw a faint smile you are concealing
 
 I wish I knew what you meant by that
 'because I liked what I felt after looking back
 the pain was after the joy that came sudden
 after I saw in your face one well hidden
 
 there are times I was so mad with desire
 when I think of you, the one I so admire
 maybe I was just disillusioned by your gaze
 or maybe that was really a smile on your face

 Sometimes when I think of you,
 My heart begins to sing,
 And all my cares and worries,
 Do not mean a thing.
 
 Sometimes when I think of you,
 My world becomes so clear,
 And with every passing moment,
 I long to hold you near.
 
 Sometimes when I think of you,
 You melt away the past,
 And in the sudden quiet,
 I find hope that it will last.
 
 Sometimes when I think of you,
 I pray for you to be,
 Everything you aspire,
 But most of all, with me.
 
 Sometimes when I think of you,
 I look up to the skies,
 And there I wish, I hope, I pray,
 To look upon your eyes.
