The Slipstream of Your Smile

You turn your head, I catch your eye,
I can't be certain, but I think I read your mind
We have so much to say, there seems so little time
I 'm swimming in your smiling eyes, the words are hard to find -
You leave me breathless, silenced:
Spinning in the slipstream of your smile.

There's half a moon, floating out to sea,
There's a million stars, and there is you and there is me;
I hold you close until I feel I 've conquered Time,
I can feel your heart, it's beating next to mine -
You leave me breathless, silenced:
Spinning in the slipstream of your smile.

Some say that love is an illusion,
A wishful thought, of make-believe;
I found that love is fragile fusion:
Walk away, and it'll be tugging at you, tugging at your sleeve ...

I love you, I love you,
I love you so much.
We have so much to say, there seems so little time
And swimming in your smiling eyes, the words are hard to find -
You leave me breathless, silenced:
Spinning in the slipstream of your smile.
