Song Word
Stare into my eyes
Do you see that little sparkle?
It has a story to tell
This tale is one that
Can only be heard by your ears
The others in the room
Cannot hear
They only hear the word
I’m trying to listen for
I dance around the subject
Trying to hint at what I want
What I want you to say
Ignoring me
I say it to your silence
“I love you”
The others in your head disappear
You focus on my lips
You question my statement
Saying love is a strong word
That glimmer in my eyes breaks
I will show you
Love is no longer a strong word
Love is a song word
If you were to listen I would sing it for you
