They say eyes are the windows to the soul Put up blinds so mine would never show My mind couldn't grow without the sunlight So afraid to bloom, thought it was day in the dead of night But you saw right through Every wall fell at your feet Didn't know what to do Without my fears protecting me But, with time, I invited you inside (inside) Into the world that existed in my mind (my mind) And you treated it with light and grace The first time I looked kindness right in her face It was a sign (a sign) There was more life left to see Took me by surprise (surprise) You wanted to give your world to me Blink of an eye, and I lost all control Every fear, a lie replaced by the comfort of your soul Not actin' in my life, not puttin' on a show For the first time, I don't have to try to build someone you'd want to know 'Cause I want to know you And every day, I try to You want to know me And every day, you show me, mm-mm
