If Only You Could See Yourself Like I See You Songtext

von Foy Vance

When I look in your eyes, I don't want to grow old,
And I begin to despise, all of my silver and gold,
When I look in your heart, I see blood and water,
Water and wine, like seeds in summer.

Oh, if only you could see yourself like I see you, ay-aye x2

When I look at your smile, I see innocence so pure
My smile (redials?), oh but yearns and yearns

Oh, if only you could see yourself like I see you, ay-aye x2

When I look in your light, I see green grass and trees
Seasons defined, by the colour of leaves,
And you seem so whole, at this beautiful stage
Oh but as you get older, all of this beauty will change

Oh, if only you could see yourself like I see you, ay-aye x2
