Through Your Eyes

You are my sunshine

My only sunshine

You make me happy when skies are gray

You'll never know, dear

How much I love you

Please, don't take my sunshine away

Run, jump, in the rain

Splash, step, every puddle

Shirt, shoes, soaking wet

Umbrella left unopened

Eyes front, all a blur

Look up through the water

You were standing there

Holding my hand

Pages turn yellow

Waiting to be read

Goodbyes to hellos

A new story ahead

Through her eyes I see

A little part of me

In her laugh I hear

The memories I hold dear

Slide down, legs in the air

Swing high, touch the sky

Chasing butterflies

Always asking why

Photos of sepia

Melting into color

Trees outside the window

Just a little taller

Through your eyes I see

A little part of me

In your laugh I hear

The memories I hold dear

From her warmth I know

That when I let you go

I'll still be right here

So carry on, have no fear

Once again, I feel

Once again, I see

Once again, this world

Holds endless beauty

Through her eyes I see

A little part of me

In your laugh I hear

The memories I hold dear

From your warmth I know

(Run, jump, in the rain)

That when I let you go

(Splash, step, every puddle)

You'll still be right here

(Shirt, shoes, soaking wet)

So carry on, have no fear

(Umbrella left unopened)

Eyes front, all a blur

Look up through the water

You were standing there

Holding my hand
