The Way You Look At Me

you knock on my front door and i answer quickly
with half glazed eyes you look at me
squinting to catch my reaction 
today's not such a good day i take it, but you drove to see me anyway
each day 's a struggle just to read the newspaper and watch the news
every day you're nervous to drive, afraid that you'll cause an accident
your once dreamy romantic eyes have all but lost their shine
your smile still wins my heart over, but it's those eyes that i fell in love with 
with half glazed eyes you kiss me
and i watch you leave down the drive
til i no longer see you or you can see me
