Lyrics
If eyes are a window to the soul
What made you close Your shades?
Forget the smile,You?ve got Mona Lisa eyes;
You?re a classified file.
I may get what I ask for,
I just know I want more?
It?s quite the debate:
Should I push the hand of fate
Or sit here and wait?
Mystery?s addictive to me;
A love/hate affair.
And why should I care?
It?s light, and heat and dark:
A steaming canvas With hidden meaning.
If eyes are a window to the soul?
show me yours, I?ll show you mine.
It?s all about a muse?
I need a hit of wonder,
I need a fix of soul.
And when it?s all said and done
Does it really matter who?
You can only spend so much time
On any thought- With any tune-In any life-
And then it ends.
And when it?s all said and done,
Did you share your soul with someone?
If eyes are a window to the soul,
What made you close your shades?
