Oh! my heart
my cold heart
it feels as it warms
and the insides surround it again
and oh! the warmth
from those eyes
from those steady gyro-spheres
with a golden face
and hands so strong
Oh! my eyes
my eyes have never seen
this way before
and oh! my heart
my heart feels
how does my cold heart feel?
after so long in an empty corridor
my heart has warmth
from the eyes that
stole it's insolation
Oh! my eyes
my eyes can never look
unless his see
why won't he look into my eyes?
look at me!
and see that my heart
can never be cold again
