behind blue eyes

words: markus diersbock
music: james blackburn

did you ever in me see
just what you
wanted me to be?
i never got just one reply
you lost that little
gleam in your eye

back then i should have known
i'd end up on my own

i don't need to find a way
to make her memory fade away
i'll remember
the good and the bad
and what we thought
we had

back then i should have known
i'd end up on my own

what's behind blue eyes?
what fire burns there inside?
what's behind your blue eyes?
is it something i'll never
find?

what makes me hate you,
though i can't live without you?
how i wish that you were mine
maybe somewhere in time

back then i should have known
i'd end up on my own

i remember the car crash
and when our flames
turned to ash
they were one in the same
just a different name

back then i should have known
i'd end up on my own

what's behind blue eyes?
what fire burns there inside?
what's behind your blue eyes?
is it something i'll never
find?

do you ever think
of how it could have been?
no, not perfect,
but it couldn't have been
called a sin

what's behind blue eyes?
what fire burns there inside?
what's behind your blue eyes?
is it something i'll never
find?
