Truths That I Refuse To See
Lately all I see
Is what enters through my eyes
If I saw deep inside my heart
I'd be in for a surprise
But I deny new love
In hopes of touching yours
When I could have it all now
If I opened up the doors
Trapped within my own heart
And lost inside my mind
But I fear not what I may lose
I fear what I will find
The emptiness goes on
into infinity
And yet my mind is filled
With truths that I refuse to see
I could have the love
That requires a closed door
But I'd rather have the kind
That brings so much more
Silently love waits for me
I need only ask
But your love's the love I want
And It's not within my grasp
From in my crystal ball
Your light shines through the dun
Though a million may surround me
My eyes see only one
I'll always wish
That I could change reality
If I wasn't so serious
I'd be a comedy
I'd do anything for you
Anything at all
I'd walk one hundred eighty miles
To make a local call
But the phone's back on
You're eleven tones away
The next best thing's not good enough
Not good enough at all
Is what enters through my eyes
If I saw deep inside my heart
I'd be in for a surprise
But I deny new love
In hopes of touching yours
When I could have it all now
If I opened up the doors
Trapped within my own heart
And lost inside my mind
But I fear not what I may lose
I fear what I will find
The emptiness goes on
into infinity
And yet my mind is filled
With truths that I refuse to see
I could have the love
That requires a closed door
But I'd rather have the kind
That brings so much more
Silently love waits for me
I need only ask
But your love's the love I want
And It's not within my grasp
From in my crystal ball
Your light shines through the dun
Though a million may surround me
My eyes see only one
I'll always wish
That I could change reality
If I wasn't so serious
I'd be a comedy
I'd do anything for you
Anything at all
I'd walk one hundred eighty miles
To make a local call
But the phone's back on
You're eleven tones away
The next best thing's not good enough
Not good enough at all
