eyes betray the soul and bear its thinking 
beyond words they say so many things to me 

a stranger here reborn it seems, awaking wonders deep in me 
if nothing's ventured nothing's gained, 
so I must seize the day 

and fighting time so had I pray 
that this moment lasts forever 
and will the world stay standing still 
at least for me 

through my eyes stare into me 
I bear my heart for all to see
with my face turned to the sun 
there ever standing still 

it wasn't you it wasn't me 
it wasn't anything 
it was a day so long awaited 
and a chance to be as me 

I let the [bad word] through my hands 
before I turned to walk away 
in distant days I long to 
sense it all so clear 

and fighting time so much I ask 
I will this moment last forever 
though seasons change and [bad word] to pass 
remain inside of me 

I had no faith before that time in any vow or deed 
days followed days and years were meaningless 
despite the wisdom of defeat I bore my heart for all to see 
the wonders I'd seen 
the wonders I'd seen 

and fighting time so had I pray 
that this moment lasts forever 
and will the world stay standing still 
at least for me 

through my eyes stare into me 
I bear my heart for all to see
with my face turned to the sun 
there ever standing still..
