A song about a crush I had on a blue-eyed girl who always seemed to end up with the “bad boy,” and never the guy who would have treated her right. 

(verse)

They see the magic of a sunset, and the glory of a sky

They see the wisdom of the aged, and the tragedy of life

They see the innocence of laughter, and the cruelty of greed

But I don’t know why your blue eyes don’t see me 

They see the metaphor in flowers, and how they pertain to love

They see the stillness of the ocean even when the waves rise up

They see the meaning of all nature, life was once not but a seed

But I don’t know why your blue eyes don’t see me 

(Chorus)

They notice everything around you, and always have

‘Cept the fact I’ve always wanted you so bad

You always pick another lover who can’t give you what you need

But I don’t know why your blue eyes don’t see me 

(verse)

They see the humility and hubris in everyone around 

They see the commotion of all silence born of a lack of sound

They see the falling of a forest hurts far more than the trees

But I don’t know why your blue eyes don’t see me 

(Chorus) 

They see the forgiveness in the angry, and the hope in all the poor

They see the kindness in cessation, and how the sand became the shore

They see an infinity of chances and why the winter brings the spring

But I don’t know why your blue eyes don’t see me 

(Chorus)
