Lyrics

You didn't talk, you didn't smile
I can't read anything from what you do
but even if it takes a while
you can bet I'm gonna see it through

But behind your eyes, I see a fear
of letting someone know your dreams
you've been hurt before but now I'm here
and I'll show you what we can mean

but don't fret about the past times
just forget about the past times

When I try to see
what you say to me
it doesn't get through
I'll trust what I can see behind your eyes

On our own, just you and me
sitting close, I reach to touch your hand
you twist your hair, as you laugh at me
we lock our fingers, baby I'm your man

for when you need to laugh, when you need to cry
when you need to shout, or when you need to get high
yeah, I'm your man
and whatever it takes I'll be the difference it makes for you

cos, when I try to see
what you say to me
it doesn't get through
I'll trust what I can see behind your eyes

Let me share your dreams

when I try to see
what you say to me
it doesn't get through
I'll trust what I can see behind your eyes

when I try to see
what you say to me
it never gets through
I'll trust what I can see behind your eyes

Nice verse melody. Well-arranged and recorded.

Nice vocals and positive feeling to the music

I like the beat, arrangement and instrumentation. It's an overall nice song.
