HERE IS WHAT I SEE WITH MY EYES

Lyrics and music by C. Ferla 2014
 

I remember that day when you told me

Here is what I see with my eyes

It’s been how you made it possible for us not to be over

Showing me the future I was not able to foresee

Here is what I see with my eyes

Here is what I see with my eyes

I can’t see any future with the two of us

My desperate scream in which I was sucked within

Here is what I see with my eyes

Your view which has been guiding us since that day of March

Here is what I see with my eyes

Here is what I see with my eyes

I see our house surrounded by olive trees

with the sea breeze that soothes the heat of the summer peaks

I see two babies coming back from a walk

One already grown, the other in the cradle newly born

Here is what I see with my eyes

Here is what I see with my eyes

I see dinners all together and movies to be seen

A little girl to wean and to make fall asleep

I see a red cat sleeping on the pillow

And a big happy dog running into the sea

Here is what I see with my eyes

Here is what I see with my eyes

I see a few tears and lots of smiles,

and some wrinkles score our faces.

I see us old, sitting on a rocking chair

While reliving our past as in a movie screen

Here is what I see with my eyes

Here is what I see with my eyes

My eyes see two different things,

One sees only black, the other sees and reads you

One eye is enough to see how it is today

Your ones show me how tomorrow will be

And standing with you hand in hand walking away

Towards what your eyes see for us in the future

Here is what I see with my eyes

Here is what I see with my eyes

Here is what I see with your eyes

Here is what I see with your eyes
