Periwinkle Eyes

She says there's gold in them there eyes
But I've never seen it
I'm still blinded by the glittering prize
I hope she knows I mean it
I hope she knows that I'm memorizing every color
That she flashes at me
From steel grey to creamy jade to periwinkle
I hope she knows what I see

Periwinkle eyes - as deep as the skies - intellectualize the punk scene
Periwinkle eyes - my glittering prize - hypnotize and charm me
Periwinkle eyes - materialize - and tranquilize and calm me
Periwinkle eyes - like a sunrise - immobilize and surprise me

What I see is a future filtered through colors
A different hue for each day
And I'll learn them all and paint them by numbers
And love her stronger each day
There's cornflower mornings and metallic green nights
And cloudy blue teary eyes whenever we fight
A coppery Kelly green when you feel all right
And powdery misty blue when I hold you tight

Periwinkle eyes - as deep as the skies - intellectualize the punk scene
Periwinkle eyes - my glittering prize - hypnotize and charm me
Periwinkle eyes - materialize - and tranquilize and calm me
Periwinkle eyes - like a sunrise - immobilize and surprise me

Accented by glitter and a sprinkle of Pixie dust
You set me on fire with your eyes full of Pixie lust
