Lyrics
WHEN I SEE YOU SMILE
VERSE 1
When my compass has stopped pointing north
When my gravity no longer pulls me down
When rivers dispute direction at the great divide
I look for shelter, shelter in your eyes.
CHORUS
When I see your smile
Feel your gentle hand
Hear your velvet words
I know I have a place to stand
And when I see your eyes
A warm rainbow?s edge
My world begins
To revolve again
When I see your eyes
VERSE 2
When my ferry stays on the other side
When the river?s tide simply will not subside
When my story lacks the gentle ending I desire
I long for answers, answers in your eyes
CHORUS
When I see your smile
Feel your gentle hand
Hear your velvet words
I know I have a place to stand
And when I see your eyes
A warm rainbow?s edge
My world begins
To revolve again
When I see your eyes
BRIDGE
My heart?s beating out of step
My lungs unable to catch my weary breath
My blood gets lost swimming in my veins
I long for life, life in your eyes
CHORUS x 2
When I see your smile
Feel your gentle hand
Hear your velvet words
I know I have a place to stand
And when I see your eyes
A warm rainbow?s edge
My world begins
To revolve again
When I see your smile
Feel your gentle hand
Hear your velvet words
I know I have a place to stand
And when I see your eyes
A warm rainbow?s edge
My world begins
To revolve again
When I see your eyes
