I've Seen Your Face

I've seen your face

The taste of your smile

There's no escape

Time just stops and I

Find myself haunted by your careful stare

Carelessly looking through me

Just as if I wasn't there

But I've seen your face

Look so close to me

That I could almost taste

What your kiss would be

Strange and unaging eyes

Lips that won't answer mine

Funny how your face stopped time

I've touched your face

So fragile and fine

And love to trace

Every curve and line

That leads me back in time

Your easy smile

Thoughtlessly falling on me

Just as if I was a child

But I've seen your face

An old memory

That I have got to face

Coming down on me

Strange and unchanging eyes

Don't mind the tears in mine

Funny how your face stopped time
