Your dancing eyes

I watch with interest
As your eyes darken
And smolder when they look at me
What is it that makes your eyes dance

Your eyes dance with mischief
As I walk cautiously into the room
I can tell by your eyes
That your dancing with the devil tonight

Your laughing eyes dance
Dazzling circles around me
I'm caught, frozen
By the beauty of their dance

Even as you cry
Your tears dance with your eyes
This dance is sad and lonely
But beautiful none the less

No matter the emotion
Your eyes dance
Stunning me with their beauty
Every last time they dance

No one can match the beauty
Of your dancing eyes
They entice me, carrying me
With the dance so that I see

Why your eyes dance
You may lie with your mouth
But, your eyes always tell me
The truth, you can hide nothing

With your beautiful dancing eyes
The Truth they speak with every twirl
Theres no mystery in your eyes 
Only the dance of your soul

That is why I know
That you love me
You say it and I look
To your eyes and see the truth

Love me you do
You say it
Your eyes dance it
The truth I'll always know it
