- Crazy Blue Eyes -
By: Miyumi

~*~

You look at me with those innocent eyes

Seeing through my pathetic disguise.

Sweet longing for you drives me crazy with grief.

Sweet misery; it drives me insane,

It tears at my heart.

At night I dream of you.

And your crazy blue eyes.

The sun reflects the light in your hair,

The moon making you ever more mysterious.

Out of the corner of my eyes I see your face

Hiding along the edge of the light,

Far away from the crowd.

Each time I see you never seems to be enough

I want to speak to you

Yet I cannot find the words to use.

I try to make them just roll of my tongue

But not a sound seems to come.

The gods just seem to want me to torment me

With each sweet glance of your face

Makes me want to linger more.

I want to say it to you,

Believe me, I do.

I want to say the words, I love you.

Would you say them back?

Crazy blue eyes,

You make me mad with longing.

I toss and turn forever it seems,

Savoring each word of yours

That you said to me today.

Like a shadow you are always by my side

And it troubles me I never noticed before.

It's simply tragic how the birds never seem to sing your sweet name

For I just want to jump for joy whenever I hear it called.

Kiyone, Kiyone, Kiyone

My sweet Kiyone.

It's sad how the flowers seem to wilt and weep

With every drop of tears that you and I shed.

Your voice is like sweet, sweet honey,

That I want to collect and delight in its sincerity.

Your hair is like a gem to be treasured

That I keep away locked in my heart

To be taken out only on the loneliest of nights.

It's a wonder I have never noticed

How the days just seem to pass me by

Without calling out your name.

Do you remember the first day we met?

'Twas on a midsummer eve

When the night was still young.

Do you remember the first night we kissed?

A dark and stormy night,

A sweet flower on my lips.

It's a miracle I've never noticed before,

How you've managed to steal my heart away

With those crazy blue eyes of yours.
