Don't look away
I don't think I could stand it
So don't look away
'cause my heart couldn't handle it
There's a fire in your eyes
And it's melting the ice
In my heart
So don't blink an eye
They're so beautiful open
Just let them cry
Or the spell will be broken
The moments in your gaze
Have been turning to days
In my heart
We've never met
And yet
We're in love
Never forget
One look is enough
Just as long as you
Don't look away
We can never be lovers
There's one chance to take
There won't be any others
I'll be spending my life
With your eyes like a knife
In my heart
