Say It with Your Eyes

I can see you’re searching for
An easy way to say to me, “it’s over.”
But you don’t need to say a word,
And I don’t need to listen to your lies.
You say it with the way you walk,
The way you stand and the way you talk about me.
It only takes a single look
And you say it with your eyes.

Eyes that used to look at me
With so much love and honesty about them,
That penetrated to my heart and
Reached down to the deepest part of me.
But now they just give you away
And break down the last part of your disguise.
No matter what your lips may say, I see the truth.
You say it with your eyes.

Let me save you just a bit of
Trouble and embarrassment. It’s over.
When we think back over all the bad times
It’s really no surprise.
I should have seen it coming
Long before a single word was spoken.
The simple truth has been there in the honest way
You say it with your eyes.
