The way she looked at him
Left no room for doubt
She said : “I want to be beside you,
Share my tears and dreams with you now”

And he sure was surprised
For something in her eyes
Was there that hadn’t been there
In all those weeks before

She said : “I’m sorry that I
Kept you waiting for so long,
But you’ve got to know,
You’ve got to know..

That I’ve been hurt so many times before
The marks there on my soul
Prevent my heart from letting go,
I need to see heaven in your eyes
A love I can survive and no more lies..”

From somewhere deep inside
He felt two worlds collide
And as he walked on trough them
His eyes could planely see

She said : “I’m sorry that I
Kept you waiting for so long,
But you’ve got to know,
You’ve got to know..

That I’ve been hurt so many times before
The marks there on my soul
Prevent my heart from letting go,
I need to see heaven in your eyes
A love I can survive and no more lies..”
