From the recording Songs from the Talking House
Keith Grimes (Eva Cassidy) and Paul Garisto (The Psychedelic Furs) along with John Previti (Danny Gatton) brought this song to life for me in the most beautiful way. Thanks gentlemen!
Lyrics
On the day I was born, I opened my eyes and gazed upon your lovely face
Something in you I recognized as God and I came home in your sweet embrace
She answered my prayers when she sent me to you, a treasure hidden in full view
How long have I loved you? How long have you loved me? Born with the memory of you
Now I can't live without you. I won't even try. I can't live without you
I want to be strong. I want to belong. I want to give it all away for
Home in your eyes, home in your eyes, home in your eyes. Oh, I'd almost forgotten
I hear the rain and imagine your sweet mouth. I see pictured each time we kiss
Open your window and you'll hear me calling your name like a prayer, like a wish
I feel an angel's hand guide us through drifting sand. I offer my sacrifice.
You blew my world apart when you offered your heart. Now nothing else with suffice.
Now I can't live without you. I won't even try. I can't live without you.
I reel in your love. Your circle of doves; knowing you're in the world with me.
Home in your eyes, home in your eyes, home in your eyes. Oh, I'd almost forgotten.
