I don't see it very often But when I do, it looks like this It looks like red hair Tied back in a pony tail With eyes that no one thought could be so blue It looks like 7:00 at night As well as 6:30 in the morning When the sun douses the sky in hue It looks like the west Or the east Depending on where the mountains are It looks like the girl three seats back Who keeps tapping the desk nervously Worrying about the scratch on her car It looks like the pitch dark With the small dots glowing That you see when you look up at night It looks like the beach With the people swimming through the waves Or lounging in the sand, soaking up the light I never really knew beauty though Until I first met you With that confident smile That you don't see very often And eyes that no one thought could be so blue
