"The Light in Your Eyes"

Today it rained and the world was cold.
The wind was high and the sea was rough,
and now I'm feeling tired and old.
I'm lonely in the darkness, looking for a light,
waiting for the dawn to come
and end this long and heartless night.
When out on that horizon comes a star into my view,
guiding me to safer waters
and pulling me in to you.

I see the light in your eyes,
and I'll always be
like a sailor in the night,
safe out on the sea
as long as I'm in sight
of the light in your eyes.

Diamond blue and deeper than the sea—
they move me like the tide
when your love comes washing over me.
Angel, if I could I would hold back the dawn
and keep you in one perfect night
to last forever, on and on.
Never fade away, never lose sight of our love,
'cause deep inside I fear
that alone I'm just not strong enough.

I see the light in your eyes,
and I'll always be
like a sailor in the night,
safe out on the sea
as long as I'm in sight
of the light in your eyes.

When the storm clouds gather, when the hurricane blows,
keep me one step ahead of the wind and the rain
and within sight of home.

I see the light in your eyes,
and I'll always be
like a sailor in the night,
safe out on the sea
as long as I'm in sightof the light in your eyes.
