Looking At You

(albüm: It Amazes Me - 1965)

Looking at you
My troubles are fleeing
I'm admiring the view
'Cause it's you I'm seeing
And the sweet honeydew
Of well-being
Settles upon me

I ask you, what is this light
That shines when you enter
Like a star in the night?
And what's to prevent her
From destroying my sight
If you center all of it on me?

Looking at you
I'm filled with the essence of
The quintessence of joy
Just looking at you
I can't help but thinking of
Who's my favorite boy
My darling, life seems so gray
I wanted to end it
Till that wonderful day
When you started to mend it
And if you'll only stay
Then I'll spend it looking at you

I'm filled with the essence of
That all quintessence of glee
I can't help but thinking of
What are you making of me
Darling, life seems so gray
I wanted to end it
Till that wonderful day
When you started to mend it
And if you'll only stay
Then I'll spend it looking at you
