His Soul

Out of the corner of my eye
I see you, you were looking at me
And I also see
The boy or the man I wished you to be.

Out of the corner of my eye
I see the boy who melt my heart
Every little kind word, makes my day
Every tiny push, breaks us apart.

Out of the corner of my eye
I see the grown-up man
Every great word, every promise
He makes, he breaks, out of plan.

Coz out of the corner of my eye
I bade him goodbye
I didn’t want his words, his touch
I want his soul, his heart – and nothing much.
