I see you sit upon a brook side lush Between some thick and lovely brush, And neatly tuck a stem behind your ear What else are you hiding that I might fear? You said you saw him last night in your head Head, bed, I only hope it wasn't bed. Eyes that strike me like a winter sunrise, Shine into mine and catch me by surprise. I fear a women with a cunning lie A girl that might tell me what but not why. Your hair shines deep like brushed and careful strokes. The ones that took a year to cut and coax Into a portrait framed with darkened hues. But you don't have a cunning lie. Do you? There, a subtle truth behind your words. A tough of tenderness, but I'm still on guard. One hand outstretched you call me closer, Your smile, A curl that strikes a perfect fifth. The kind that queues the brass and sends the room Into a symphony composed for you. You give me signs that I should hope for more, So somehow, I commit myself for what's in store.

I Can Only Trust Your Beauty
I see you sit upon a brook side lush Between some thick and lovely brush, And neatly tuck a stem behind your ear What else are you hiding that I might fear? You said you saw him last night in your head Head, bed, I only hope it wasn't bed. Eyes that strike me like a winter sunrise, Shine into mine and catch me by surprise. I fear a women with a cunning lie A girl that might tell me what but not why. Your hair shines deep like brushed and careful strokes. The ones that took a year to cut and coax Into a portrait framed with darkened hues. But you don't have a cunning lie. Do you? There, a subtle truth behind your words. A tough of tenderness, but I'm still on guard. One hand outstretched you call me closer, Your smile, A curl that strikes a perfect fifth. The kind that queues the brass and sends the room Into a symphony composed for you. You give me signs that I should hope for more, So somehow, I commit myself for what's in store.
