Yahwe Mutabo - Close

There's something in her eye that's so familiar
Like an old friend there to hold a door
And I know what she sees in mine is wonder
Will I ever have the place or the time

Jeeping down the highway with the warm night
I'm sitting tight...trying not to seem so
She commands these roads like she owns the world
And maybe...maybe somehow she does

Once she was my everything
And once, maybe I was hers too
Did she think anything at all?
Or has she lost me for good?

Lounging by the fire under the moonlight
The glow it gently paints her face
With warm and cold
You color my world

And once you were my everything
And now...what I'd give to be yours
Doubt and fear relinquish here from her heart

I know I have made mistakes
And you've not forgive me
You say your memories are silly when told
But we know that's not true

One thought about you
Is more than these words can say

We sit so close yet so far away
We talk about the past and of the future
I finally feel like I have control of my thoughts
Then her hair creeps down to
Catch a glimpse of those eyes
