I See Your Face

On the telephone

Or out in a crowd

Words don't come

But then I speak your name

I speak your name

Staring into space

Or falling fast asleep

Dreams don't come

But then I see your face

I see your face

At a restaurant

Or standing in line

Someone speaks

And then I hear your name

I hear your name

If I could change your name

Or you could change my mind

If I could change your face

Or you could change—

Even when the years

Have gone politely by

Dreams will come

In which I see your face

I see your face

I see your face

I see your face
