TO DIE FOR

You have a mysterious gleam 
In those beautiful brown eyes 
And I am curious to find out 
Weather they tell the truth 
Or lies

For the eyes are the gateway 
To the soul 
They can set ones heart on fire 
Or freeze you rock solid and ice cold 

Why do you torture me
As one nailed to a cross
You know how much I love you 
And is willing to pay the cost

Dance with me in the moonlight 
Let the stars look upon your angelic face 
Lay your ear against my heart
And listen! How you make it race

If you were poison 
I'll take you without a taught 
I'll rather die a thousand times over 
Than to live without you in my heart.
