Deep in his eyes (original song)

[Verse 1]

It’s been a long time since we last met C

But I still remember how you left G

From way up high you can’t see my tracks Am

You spread your wings and never flew back F G

I used to think of these good old days

In memory of you my glass I raised

But when I touched my empty bed

My hands got cold and my eyes wet

[Pre-chorus]

My heart would wonder F

Then full of thunder G

[Chorus]

Why does love hurt in such a painful way C Em

That breaks you into pieces and throw them away Dm Em G

Why does it dance with you for an hour, but stays forever C Em

To remind you every day how joyful you were Dm G

[Instrumental]

C F Am G (x2)

[Verse 2]

Since then, I’ve followed a different light

That loves me tender and holds me tight

Beyond the sky that’s where he stood

Who lives much longer than four cats would

He made December get out of my way

And its strong wind and its dark grey

So that I could sing from deep inside

That once I rose above the tears I had cried

[Pre-chorus:]

Now I

Try not to wonder

Still free of thunder

[Chorus]

Why does love hurt in such a painful way

That breaks you into pieces and throw them away

Why does it dance with you for an hour, but stays forever

To remind you every day how joyful you were

[Outro]

I have to walk my way F C

Walk my way G Am

I’ll walk my way F C

His way G

Until I reach his bright F C

Where there are no lies G C

Then I’ll see your smile F Am

Deep in his eyes F C

I’ll see your smile F Am

Deep in his eyes G C
