I see the light in your smile
And the dark in your eyes
Weaving together tales
Of love and loss
A heart that has swelled with joy
And broken with anguish
A lifetime of living
Etching experience
On the fabric of you
And if I look carefully
Study you with the attention you deserve
I’ll uncover your secrets, as
I see the light in your smile
And the dark in your eyes
Remembering this is only the beginning of your story…
