Oh when I saw your eyes
I was mesmerized
So much tenderness
But you walked away in distress
Your surrounding said it all
Your back was against the wall
What I'd give to see you again
But I missed the train
While I got home safe that night
You were taken for a ride
Too young to understand
But I would later learn
The writing on the wall
For all the world to see
You have lived it all
Yeah it would come to be
And the world would disagree
Though many years have passed
The pain still part of life
Though you did not survive
We may still hear you sob
The pain never ends
It just never ends
Oh I will never forget
And I shall never repress
Those eyes I saw
That help me see your soul
The writing on the wall
For all the world to see
You have lived it all
Yeah it would come to be
And the world would disagree
Oh I will never forget
And I shall never repress
Those eyes I saw
That help me see your soul
The writing on the wall
For all the world to see
You have lived it all
Yeah it would come to be
And the world would disagree
