Analysis of I could see it in your Eyes
Everytime I fall in love, we end up saying goodbye
I know it had to bother you; I could see it in your eyes
Somehow you seemed different, as if you did not care
And other times, if I needed you - you were always there
-Don't try to deny it, cause love is not easy to hide
Just tell me that you love me; as a man, swallow your pride
But if you cannot tell me and you think we should both let go
All you have to do is say those words and how we'd end up, we'll never know
I will turn and walk away if you say you never cared for me
But I can see it in your eyes.... so don't give up so easily
All things happen for a reason but nothing can happen if we don't try
I would tell you what our future holds; if I could see it in your eyes
