India Arie - These Eyes Lyrics

Complimentary "These Eyes" Ringtone

These eyes never saw you leavin 
This heart is in need of some healing 
These arms are letting you go 
Our life is the greatest story never told 

How many more ways can I explain this to you boy 
We had had this conversation several times before 
I will except nothing less than your complete respect 
If you cannot give me that then maybe I should step 

These eyes never saw you leavin 
This heart is in need of some healing 
These arms are letting you go 
Our life is the greatest story never told 

All this cryin all this fightin simply ain't my style 
Though you're one of the most important people in my life 
I love you from the day we met, I know you love me too 
But at this point walking away is the best thing we can do 

These eyes never saw you leavin 
This heart is in need of some healing 
These arms are letting you go 
Our life is the greatest story never told 

Are we meant to be man and wife? 
The answer I don't know 
Of life's many mystery's what intrigues me the most 
Is who our children would have been 
I guess we'll never know 
Even as I walk away I'll always keep the hope 

These eyes never saw you leavin 
This heart is in need of some healing 
These arms are letting you go 
That's life 

That's the way the story goes 
Truth is every relationship is a lesson 
Truth is I saw it coming but it hurts anyway 
Truth is I'm not the reason you're so angry 
Truth is you're not the reason I'm so passive 
Truth is I've got to take back my power 
Truth is 

The reason why it hurts so bad 
to walk away from you 

These eyes I never saw you leavin 
This heart my heart is in need of some healing 
These arms, These arms are letting you go 
That's life is the greatest story never told (2x) 

Our love is the greatest story never told 
Our life is the greatest story never told (2x)
