In My Eyes



If you don't see yourself in my eyes
and they don't tell you that I carry you in my heart,
you can't know how much i love you
and with what fervor I defy reason.

If you don't see sadness in my eyes,
because of every pain that tears your chest,
you can't know how much you mean to me
and that your happiness creates happiness for me.

If you don't see the fear in my eyes
that the day dawns without you in my arms,
you can't know how much anxiety hurts
even though every dream of mine is woven of you.
