In my black & white world,
she is a colourful blaze /
A vision of beauty
I cannot erase.
Behind closed lids,
we all see lightning flashes /
but nothing comes close to
those exquisite eyelashes.
In every road and every path,
her smile I still see /
I'm all at once lost and found,
trapped & yet free.
Since I met her, my every season is now Spring.
And I have a feeling
that all will be alright /
And when I sleep now, in my dreams
I am alone,
yet I'm blessed with perfect sight.
A new Year, a new Me, a new set of Wings /
I contemplate love,
and other silly things.
I contemplate love
& the freedom it brings.
I contemplate love...
And my heart...
Silently...
Sings.
