Don'T Look At Me That Way
Don't look at me that way
everything you touch tends to slip away
I know you, your tactics and your ploys
how many others were just play toys?
Let me go, set my heart free
you and I were never meant to be
close your eyes and slowly walk away
there's nothing else to say.
I may look back, regret the years
but time eventually wipes away the tears
and you and I were just casual interludes
knowing the moment when love is no longer pursued.
I let you go, the memories and all
recognizing blue eyes fade in the withdrawal
and the brief encounter shared between two fools
never remain the most precious jewels.
Don't look at me that way
everything we touched slips away
and all that's left is history
treasures mingled in forgotten mystery.
