ALL I SEE IS YOU


All I see is you

I look in her eyes, and your eyes are all I see.
I’m a prisoner of love trying to get free
She’s everything I want, but I don’t know what to do
Because every time I look at her, all I see is you.

I kiss her lips that are so soft, tender, and fine
But when she kisses me, your lips are what’s on my mind.
She has a passion that makes me feel oh so good.
My heart wants what it wants and not always what it should.

I look at her, and lies are all I see.
I know it’s her, but in my mind, it’s you looking at me.
My soul has been wounded like a bird that can’t fly.
Love tries to come in, but I keep walking by.

Feeling her hand in my hand really feels good.
I’m just not sure I’m feeling everything I should.
She reaches out her hand, and what I see isn’t right.
I see your hand, and I want to hold it tight.

I was holding her close in my arms
Enjoying all her sweet charms,
Then a feeling ram through me and made me blue.
She was in my arms, but all I could think of was you.

I move the hair from her face,
And there you are from another time, from another place.
She likes to do all the things I like to do,
But I look at her, and all I see is you.

There’s a scent that she carries that keeps me in tune.
My senses tingle because it reminds me of your perfume.
This scent surrounds me and turns me into a babbling loon.
It takes over and all my thoughts it does consume.

I wake up in the morning, holding her breast.
I remove my hand, thinking this is a test.
I caress her thinking I know you and I are through,
But as I feel her skin on my skin, all I see is you.
