“What Her Eyes Can Say”

“What Her Eyes Can Say”
Verse 1

I’ve heard a thousand voices shout,
I’ve watched the world spin inside out,
But nothing speaks as loud to me
As when she lifts her gaze.
A storm can brew behind those lashes,
Lightning strikes and thunder crashes,
And I know I’m in trouble, boy,
With just one sideways blaze.

Chorus

‘Cause her eyes can say anger,
Cut me down to size.
They can whisper love so soft
It makes the whole world quiet.
They can burn with passion,
They can tremble into fear.
They can pull me into intimacy,
Draw me close and keep me near.
They can send me into ecstasy,
Take all my breath away…
But most of all, they calm me down
When I get lost—
That’s what her eyes can say.

Verse 2

Sometimes they’re like a country road,
Leading me somewhere I don’t know,
But I’ll follow every mile
Just to see where they unwind.
Sometimes they’re soft like morning rain,
Washing off my stubborn pain;
One look and all the noise in me
Goes quiet every time.

Chorus

‘Cause her eyes can say anger,
Cut me down to size.
They can whisper love so deep
It makes the darkness shine.
They can burn with passion,
They can shake with fear.
They can open up intimacy,
Pull me close and keep me near.
They can send me into ecstasy,
Steal all my breath away…
But most of all, they settle storms
Inside my chest—
That’s what her eyes can say.

Bridge

No words, no lines, no poetry
Could ever quite explain
How she can change my whole damn world
Just by looking my way.
All I need to understand her
Is the color in her gaze—
Her eyes tell truths
Her lips could never phrase.

Final Chorus

Her eyes can flash with anger,
Or melt me into love.
They can spark that wild passion,
Or shake me when she’s scared enough.
They can open into intimacy,
Pull me in like I belong.
They can send me into ecstasy,
Turn a heartbeat into a song.
But the way they calm me
When I’m drifting far away…
That’s the sweetest thing
Her eyes can say.
