Like windows deep into your soul
Your eyes glimmer out their secrets
Yet I cannot hear what they
Are trying to say.
What is it your words mean?
You tell me one thing
But your eyes betray you
And it is through them that
I get the feeling behind the words.
But I'm not sure what you're 
Trying not to say.
I wish that I was back in the fifth grade,
With a secret decoder ring
From the bottom of the cereal box,
But one that would decode for me
What you are thinking and feeling.
Life would be much simpler that way
And I wouldn't have to guess what you feel,
Wouldn't have to wonder if I have a chance.
And when I found myself looking
Deep into your beautiful eyes,
They would be all the more beautiful
Because I wouldn't be looking through my tears.
