That Look In Your Eyes

Edwin Van Veldhoven

Your love is like a beam of moonlight
That slipped right through my fingers.

If I could be with you,
Would I have the courage,
Or would it have been the same?
Could I have said those words?
Oh, I'm so ashamed.

Some nights I feel I'm all alone
With that look in your eyes;
I've never told you
Just how much I love you.

Never a care -
I always thought that we had so much time to share.

Your face could scarcely hide the pain.
I could not decide,
But now I know that I love you.
Now you've left my side.

I know that it's my fault
That you're so far away.
Oh the guilt does consume me;
It eats me away.

When will it end?
I have tried to just forget you.
But when I'm alone
There's your face, I can't forget.

Oh, when I think of that look in your eyes,
I can't help but feel that you need me.
Yes, when I think of that look in your eyes,
And the moon in your hair,
I wish I were at your side.

But I know that it is just a dream.
Your life must go on; just pass me by...
