Verse
D C D
I love your eyes when you look away
Am D
Thinking somewhere else of what ought to be
C D
When they're suddenly blue for a moment of time
C D C
Then the colour goes when you look at me
 
D C D
I love your hands as a part of you
Am D
As they write a word just by staying still
C D
When you talk they move, painting what you say
C D C
So I understand more than words can tell
 
D C D
I love your hair in the dark it's soft
Am D
In the light it moves, red and green are brown
C D
All the time it takes for a night to pass
C D C
And a lifetime grows as the day comes down
 
D C D
I love you now as you don't love me
Am D
I can't let you know you're too far away
C D
But I wonder now just what did you see
C D
When you looked at me in that loveless way
