Lyrics

painted desert - a picture post card
life was easy - so surreal
in the distance - a green-eyed girl
it all began with a home cooked meal

when I hold you
when I touch you
I don't see that look in your eyes anymore

we shared adventures - filled with laughter
a perfect world that felt so right
spent every moment - dreaming of someday
I was the apple of her eye

it wasn't long till - things unraveled
best laid plans - just left behind
where was the love - where did it go?
punch the clock - just put in the time

when I hold you
when I touch you
I don't see that look in your eyes anymore

does a good man - stay or go?
never been a - quitter before
if there's an answer - I couldn't find it
couldn't seem to walk out that door

now we both go - through the motions
all the clichés are out of control
you deserve better - life's too short
eyes are the mirror to the soul

when I hold you
when I touch you
I don't see that look in your eyes anymore
