Blue eyes

I saw you in the noise of the night

Standing there like you already knew me

Didn’t say much, just looked my way

Like you’d been waiting to confuse me

I tried to play it cool, like I don’t care

But I remembered every detail

The way you laughed like you had nowhere else to be

Like you’d already broken every jail

I don’t know what you did

But I feel it every time you’re close

Like the world gets quieter

And I notice you the most

Blue eyes, pulling the tide from my name

Blue eyes, turning the silence to flame

If I fall, let me fall where you stay

Blue eyes don’t look away

Blue eyes, like a sky I can’t leave

Blue eyes, like a truth I believe

If love is a place I was never meant to find

Then I was still found every time in your eyes

We talked until the streetlights changed

Didn’t even notice the hour

You made ordinary moments feel

Like something with more power

I don’t say things like this out loud

I usually keep it all inside

But you make it hard to stay quiet

Like you’re standing on my mind

And I don’t know what you are

But I don’t want it to stop

Every word you say

Hits me like it’s not an accident

Blue eyes, pulling the tide from my name

Blue eyes, turning the silence to flame

If I fall, let me fall where you stay

Blue eyes don’t look away

Blue eyes, like a sky I can’t leave

Blue eyes, like a truth I believe

If the world disappears when you’re close to me

Then let it disappear, I can finally see

I don’t need perfect words

I don’t need a plan

I just know I feel different

When you take my hand

Blue eyes, pulling the tide from my name

Blue eyes, turning the silence to flame

If forever has a sound, it’s the way you say my name

Blue eyes, stay the same

Blue eyes, like a sky I can’t leave

Blue eyes, like a truth I believe

If I wake up lost in a world I don’t know

Let your eyes be the place I go
