Your brown eyes blind mine
Can't see past your smile
You shine a light so bright
With every word you say
But they're never what I have in mind

I wanna tell you how I feel
But you've got me tongue tied
You're like a dream, can't be real
So why do we seem so right?

These feelings don't mean a thing
If I can't find the words
I try to let you know
But I can't be heard
over the pounding in my chest
Memories of my heart still remain
But you stole the rest
And I don't want it back

We gotta accept
That love's not for everyone
But that slips my mind
When those brown eyes
Make me come undone

I wanna say how I feel
But you've got me so tongue tied
My love's just a bird, set free
And already in flight

These feelings don't mean a thing
If I can't find the words
I try to let you know
But I can't be heard
over the pounding in my chest
Memories of my heart still remain
But you stole the rest
And I don't want it back

I live in a dream
Where it's only you and me
But your brown eyes bring me back
Cause I know it will never last
That's why...
These feelings don't mean a thing
If I can't find the words
I try to let you know
But I can't be heard
over the pounding in my chest
Memories of my heart still remain
But you stole the rest
And I don't want it back

Yeah you can keep it
Cause it hasn't been the same
Since those brown eyes
First landed on mine.

I was inspired to write this song by a guy who immediately caught my eye on that first day. Unfortunately, he doesn't know it. I want other girls to know that they're not the only ones with boy troubles. You'll never be alone.
