Little Eyes Lyrics

I really, really love this song...

To me is about a guy who lays next to his sleeping girlfriend, contemplating the beauty of her sleep, deeply in love... as she murmurs and twiches in her sleep, he think he knows what she's dreaming about... sh'e dreaming about the two of them, and sort of a nightmare... she barely open her eyes, and sees her lover eyes closely watching over her... safe again, relapses in her sleep...

There's no more pure expresion of love to me than admiring your girl in her sleep... Oh boy, do I miss that.
