eyes. - Maurice Moore

How could a heart like yours

Ever love a heart like mine?

How could I live before

How could I have been so blind?

You opened up my eyes…

Eyes…

I told myself one too many lies

Like I don’t need you in my life

I tried but you wouldn’t let me hide

Showed me where the light is, oh

Looking at me blank face

Ima just need space

Cycles repeat

Falling for women who’s trauma is deep

Don’t bring that back to me, please

I can hardly sleep, no Zs for me

I’ve been jealous

I’ve been tempted

And given in one too many times

But if you really mean it

All I need is

To know

How could a heart like yours

Ever love a heart like mine?

How could I live before

How could I have been so blind?

You opened up my eyes…

Eyes…

Do you know what you got

Right here

Still thought that you

Could use a change

Should of known all along, baby

You were tryna leave me

Where you met me

At the bottom of this bottle

Don’t know how you swallowed

Girl, you must empty

Should have known

You weren’t holding it down

What’s a picture

If I’m not your background

Know I’ve had chances

But none of them tempt me

I was more worried

You’d grow to resent me

I was afraid you would leave

But I guess that’s a chance Imma take

Take it or leave

This band-aid

I’m ripping it off

I’ve always had less than enough

I’ve been jealous

I’ve been tempted

And given in one too many times

But if you really mean it

All I need is

To know

How could a heart like yours

Ever love a heart like mine?

How could I live before

How could I have been so blind?

You opened up my eyes…

You opened up my eyes…

You opened up

My eyes, my eyes, my eyes, my eyes…
