In Your Eyes
O.H.M. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I love when you're with me, hate when you're away
I hope you forgive me, for the mess that I made
And I know you still miss me, promise I feel the same
It always just hits me, late at night I'm awake
Don't stop, let's rock, where you wanna go
Skin soft, lip gloss, let me hold you close
Hearts crossed, unlocked, we could take it slow
Let's talk, we've got something more than most
I feel it head to toe
It's flowing through my skin and bones
What this is I don't know, but I don't care long as I'm the one you're calling yours
Wish I could say the words tonight to make you mine
And I know I'm the worst for how I made you cry
And girl we've come so far, why we telling lies
And it breaks my heart when we yell and fight, alright
It's hard to say goodbye, when I look in your eyes
When we were together, I thought I would stay
We both said forever, it was more like a phase
And there must be something better than what's love nowadays
I need sunny weather, feel like everything's gray
So long, move on, falling out of love
Our bond's, all gone, it feels like we're done
You're so headstrong can't we just make up
Don't know what's wrong, girl what's up with us
I feel it head to toe
It's flowing through my skin and bones
What this is I don't know, but I don't care long as I'm the one you're calling yours
Wish I could say the words tonight to make you mine
And I know I'm the worst for how I made you cry
And girl we've come so far, why we telling lies




And it breaks my heart when we yell and fight, alright
It's hard to say goodbye, when I look in your eyes

We're surrounded by debris of the past
And it's too late to cause a change in the tides
So we slip into a hopeless sea of regret as I stare
Through the haunted maze in your eyes
Right through where I remain for all time
And time won't change this
It's promise made
Yeah, the time won't change this
It's how we'll stay
This is our time, we devour the days ahead
We've been possessed by these changing times
As we slip on through, we promise to meet again somewhere
Through the haunted maze in our minds
Right through where we shall remain for all time
Yes, time won't change this
It's promise we made
Yeah, time won't change this
We shall remain

I saw them live in 1999 in Austria at the Two Days A Week Festival ...what a great time (I was 15 years old)

Chi was walking in the public area and talked to the people.
I can remember like it was yesterday...I said to my brother something like "look at this big dreads"

And then he said "This is Chi"

He was surrounded by a few people and I don't wanted to bother him, but these days I wish that I have talked to him a few words.


I am more that old school guy (first 3 CDs where the best)

I am getting old

Deftones never disappoint. You know you've done your job as a father, when your 24 year old daughters favorite band is Deftones. My old posters in my room, now hang on her walls.

@defbatface

Gabriel Pacheco ah man my daughter is only 3 but I can only hope that this will be the case for me. My walls were plastered with deftones posters growing up. Great dad work mah man.

@Boxstate_Rebel

@defbatface Appreciate it my man. SOAD, Deftones were some of her 1st concerts. Last time we saw them was @ Riot Fest couple years ago. I was 17 when I had her. I'm sure your an awesome Dad, and this will be the case for you too.
