blueberry eyes

blueberry eyes
unseen a smile just poured out
the cor-ner of my eye
taking the same road
like a line of sweet, sad sideshow freaks
laughing at mr. blind man's jokes
this is the most beautiful way
a hundred miles an hour down
the way back up is best
when you hold a familiar hand
open our hearts examine these clouds
i see a forest without trees
you see angels running in cycles
those blueberry eyes take in so much
i miss a lot, it's true
the mix is often poor
but i feel what others lost.
you are your best
on the way back up.
your smile lights up
like a thousand watt bulb
a cheshire grin
please don't disappear.
racing them down
you're the most beautiful way
dancing to a wise man's joke
like a line of pure innocence
taking the same road
the cor-ner of my eye
i see a smile just poured over
blueberry eyes
blueberry eyes
i love you.
