Those Blue Eyes Still Shine

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There was a boy with bright blue eyes Back in the halls where time stood still A quiet crush I held inside A secret heart too shy to spill We graduated, drifted far Two lives like ships beneath the same stars [Chorus] Now your arms are my home The only place I've known such peace Every broken road that led me here Is where the healing finally starts Forever came for us at last Love was worth the wait, worth every year [Verse 2] We crossed the same old paths for years Like fate kept writing in between Two strangers in the very same room So close but never really seen Then life sat us down to share a drink And something changed before I'd even think [Chorus] Now your arms are my home The only place I've known such peace Every broken road that led me here Is where the healing finally starts Forever came for us at last Love was worth the wait, worth every year [Bridge] Fifty years since that first look And Mel, you still take my breath away We started late but darling We were right on time [Verse 3] Mel, those blue eyes still shine the same As the boy I loved before I knew his name You're my comfort, you're my strength My safe space at the end of day We didn't need a lifetime to begin We just needed fate to try again [Chorus] Now your arms are my home The only place I've known such peace Every broken road that led me here Is where the healing finally starts Forever came for us at last Love was worth the wait, worth every year [Outro] So here's to us, Mel, here's to now Forever's finally found us and I'm never letting go
