about

This soulful love ballad with its melancholy piano intro was inspired by and written for our one-year-old son Bram.

lyrics

lyrics by Lizanne Hennessey

Boy, you’re a mystery,
even though you’re closest to me.
All I want to know is why.
I wish I could look through your eyes.

Boy, when will I learn,
that I don’t need to be concerned.
You can still take me by surprise.
I wish I could look through your eyes.

And I know, if I asked you,
you would take off your mask too,
and show me what it is you see, oh baby -
Take me with you when you go.
Show me everything you know.
I’d get the answers to my whys,
if I could just look through your eyes.

Boy, you are safe with me,
because I love you unconditionally.
Won’t give up after all this time.
I wish I could look through your eyes.

Boy, I’d do anything,
to keep you safe from suffering.
I would move the earth and the skies
for just one look through your eyes.

And I know, if I asked you,
you would take off your mask too,
and show me what it is you see, oh baby -
Take me with you when you go.
Show me everything you know.
I’d get the answers to my whys,
if I could just look through your eyes.
