All she knows Is what she's told Is fact and fantasy Life in harmony She stands alone Shadow on the wall Gently lit her silhouette Reflecting tall She spins to look On my command The shutter clicks she blinks And laughs offhand I slow the pace And pause to stop and think Here is a moment Where good fortune winks Eyes that sparkle And eyes that shine Hazel eyes smile As they peer into mine Canvas blank The slate is clean With nothing in between us Simple and untarnished She is all she seems All she knows Will turn to gold Colors spill in waves Off the path she paves She dreams a place Chapters in a book Stories long with heroes strong How blue the sky would look
Then she stops to see Who's listening Seeds of consciousness Come creeping in All I know Here is a moment Where good fortune winks Eyes that sparkle And eyes that shine Hazel eyes smile As they peer into mine Canvas blank The slate is clean With nothing in between us Simple and untarnished She is all she seems Someday when she feels the comfort fade Holding on to this humble place All she knows In her hands she holds With little evidence Of fading innocence Eyes that sparkle And eyes that shine Hazel eyes smile As they peer into mine Canvas blank The slate is clean With nothing in between us Simple and untarnished She is all she seems
