Behind Masked Eyes
Inspired by a dear friend.
Thanks Jim
Rewrite of The Who's Behind Blue Eyes
I'd really like to know
What he's like
This mystery of a man
This dream of a man
Behind masked eyes
And I wonder
Has he ever known what its like to be loved
To be held in a real woman's truth
Instead of a cruel one's lies
Chorus
How sad it seems
His words betray unfulfilled dreams
As sweet a guy as he seems to be
I pray he does not pass his hours
Always lonely
Only wish I could love him
With a vengence
Set his artist's soul free
I wonder
Has he ever known what it's like
To feel those Heavenly feelings
Like I do
Feelings so true
Could I break thru a shell so hard
Be his lover
Take away all his pain and woe
That wall he has up
Somehow, someday could I break thru
Chrous
I wonder has he ever known
What it's like
To be like a king treated
To live a life undefeated
Behind masked eyes
I wonder
What should I say?
For I too have been too long lonely
How can I make him understand?
I'll never tell him any lies
Chorus
I'd really like to know
What he's like
This mystery of a man
This dream of a man
Behind masked eyes
And I wonder
Has he ever known what its like to be loved
To be held in a real woman's truth
Instead of a cruel one's lies
