YOUR EYES
山下達郎 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm dreaming and in my dream
I see your eyes
They fill my heart with heaven

I'm flying and in the sky
I see your eyes
They answer all my longing for you
I've always lived my life in fantasy
No chance to take
No heart to break

But now you take my hand and
You make me understand that two dreams
Can join together

It's morning and as I wake
I see your eyes
They are my reason
They are my answer now
Because I love you
The one who made my dreams come true

I've always lived my life in fantasy
No chance to take
No heart to break

But now you take my hand and
You make me understand that two dreams
Can join together

It's morning and as I wake
I see your eyes
They are my reason
They are my answer now
Because I love you
The one who made my dreams come true





(Oh) I love you
I love you
