What I see in you

what I see in you
I wait for November
11th, 11pm, 11 minutes
11 seconds to wish
And I think of you everytime.
when I'm half awake staring at the clock
just waiting...
waiting for 11:11,
to wish for you

On every eyelash
on every angel's kiss
on every 11 I see.
I wish for you.
Because I only want one thing:
I want your smile
your happiness
something genuine I haven't seen before

It's been bitter
been cold and tough,
winter for too long.
a year without seeing spring.
So today, I want to take you outside.
touch every blade of grass
soak up the sun
and hear your laughter again

Because you're beautiful,
even if you don't believe me.
You're an angel without wings or halo
You're perfect: brilliant in everyway
but you don't see it like I do.
I wish you could see what I see in you

Don't judge
don't cry
don't keep it all inside
I want you to see what I see in you
Because I think you're brave,
a lion at heart.
Don't listen to them, don't care anymore
If only they saw what I see in you...
Beautiful Dreamer
