Cafe Eyes

Our nights together you make me laugh

I frame your face in a photograph

Your heart is big and your hands are small

Your hair is long and you love to talk

I can get the best of you

The greatest passion you've ever known

By the way that I learn from you

How to tickle your mind and make you laugh

Mix together like half and half

Remember what you told me

About love and time

As long as I remember the signs

Taking me to your café eyes

-10-

The night falls so quiet and is close to day
I'm like a child learning many different things
You have a watch that I see
"You have time," you tell me
You're the best at what you do
Time will show you
"I really like that you thrive too"
Crazy for the light in your eyes
Sometimes they're green
in your ripped jeans
The time we share
Watching your fingers move through the air
"How am I making the food?"
I'll bake you cakes to put in your mouth
Bring you food to eat with your hands
Fresh roasted coffee beans from your homeland
Made for love put us in the mood
Can free up your time to celebrate your cake face
and the fun you create
Always ready for your next surprise
Your love is real in your café eyes

La noche llega tan tranquilamente y está cerca del día
Soy como un niño aprendiendo muchas cosas diferentes
Tienes un reloj que veo
"Tienes tiempo", me dices
Eres el mejor en lo que haces
El tiempo te lo demostrará
"Me gusta mucho que prosperes también"
Loco por la luz en tus ojos
A veces son verdes
en tus jeans rotos
el tiempo que compartimos
Observando tus dedos moverse en el aire
"¿Cómo estoy haciendo la comida?"
Te hornearé pasteles para que te los comas
Te traeré comida para que comas con tus manos
Granos de café recién tostados de tu tierra natal
Hecho por amor, nos pone de humor
Puedo liberar tu tiempo para celebrar tu cara de pastel
y la diversión que creas
Siempre listo para tu próxima sorpresa
Tu amor es real en tus ojos de café

Verso 22

Four girls standing together

Cricket watching for a sign

Driving the dance floor weather

Funny with an interesting line

“Finger her” you say

Holding up four fingers

With a smile in your café eyes

There is a ring around the roses

Rings around the sun

Like that ring around the moon

Your phone is ringing

When I think of you

I see her there too

We are in this for the long run

You are the one

Who told me about her

“She is the only one” you said

“You want to know better”

She has the qualities, the values, the works and light

She is a sight

A butterfly moment

I’m going to write poems for her sparkling eyes

And romanticize her heart

With patience and work and soft sounds

To keep her close

Like the love you share with her

Daydreaming about her every day

Little things

My heart beats

My mouth breathes

Longing to hear her tongue speak

Because of such strong love, I feel weak

I write to keep going

Send her words for flowers

“Amiga mía, mi amor
Ven un rato
Hoy te leeré
Una historia de amor verdadero
El grillo te observa

El grillo te dice
Los números no son nada nuevo
Te quiero
Que me alimentes
Proveeré para
Protegerte a ti, a tus seres queridos y tu libertad
Te quiero
Que me alimentes”

With a heart shape chest

And breasts with smiling hearts in their eyes

You drive around the corner

When all you see are guys

Trying to get a look at you and your café eyes
