Love Song — Vashti Bunyan

I love your eyes when you look away Thinking somewhere else of what ought to be When they’re suddenly blue for a moment of time Then the colour goes when you look at me

I love your hands as a part of you As they write a word just by staying still When you talk they move painting what you say And I understand more than words can Tell

I love your hair – in the dark it’s soft, In the light it moves – red and green are brown All the time it takes for a night to pass And a lifetime grows as the day comes down

I love you now as you don’t love me I can’t let you know – you’re too far away But I wonder now just what did you see When you looked at me in that loveless way
