lyrics
You’re a regular gem
Shining and quiet
Whatever I’m pining after:
Darling, you supply it
I don’t have to be clever
I don’t need to be scintillating
Or really any more than
Merely ordinary
Somehow I’m sufficient
When I’m viewed through the prism
Of your eyes
I’m a terrible fool
And my vision is skewed
I can’t see past the last bad dream
Or through the next Big Mood
I don’t mean to seem bitter
I don’t want to be grim
But, often, I’m feeling caustic
Often, lost and broken
But none of that matters
In the scattering light
Of your eyes
I’d looked everywhere
For someone to care for me
Through even the dullest of lulls
In every tantrum and tear
But none of that matters
In the scattering light
Of your eyes
Somehow I’m sufficient
When I’m viewed through the prism
Of your eyes
Shining and quiet
Whatever I’m pining after:
Darling, you supply it
I don’t have to be clever
I don’t need to be scintillating
Or really any more than
Merely ordinary
Somehow I’m sufficient
When I’m viewed through the prism
Of your eyes
I’m a terrible fool
And my vision is skewed
I can’t see past the last bad dream
Or through the next Big Mood
I don’t mean to seem bitter
I don’t want to be grim
But, often, I’m feeling caustic
Often, lost and broken
But none of that matters
In the scattering light
Of your eyes
I’d looked everywhere
For someone to care for me
Through even the dullest of lulls
In every tantrum and tear
But none of that matters
In the scattering light
Of your eyes
Somehow I’m sufficient
When I’m viewed through the prism
Of your eyes
