Tears in My Eyes

I have tears in my eyes

so belaboring are my cries.

Much of my fear a disconnect,

why is this my life I select?

I wish I might bring her back,

a spiritual mystique I lack.

I wonder sometimes the life you lead

how often with you would be my need.

I know there is desperation in my word

though I believe I am not absurd.

When a television character might speak

tears in my eyes remind me to weep.

Tears in my eyes remind me to weep

Oh how I want to skip this song

How I wish only to know what is wrong

If I cannot have you in my life

then I don’t know how to begin my life.

Tears in my eyes remind me to sleep

tears in my eyes remind me to sleep

tears in my eyes …
