Baby Blue Eyes

I wrote this for Lee. He is a friend I care deeply about.


Baby blue eyes
I can't stand to see you cry
Oh no
And baby blue eyes
It's not time to say goodbye
Or to go
Cause when you live for the moment
The moments seem to pass to fast
And when you cling to hurt and anger
All you seem to live in is the past
Oh baby blue eyes
Don't ask me
Don't ask me to let go

You're alone now
As if that's your greatest fear
That's not so
I am with you
That's my voice you hear
And don't let go
I will always find you
No matter how dark the night
I will be your anchor
I will be your guiding light
Oh baby blue eyes
Ask me
Just ask me to let go

Like the blue bird
You will fly away
Far from here
And though I love you
I won't ask you to stay
Close or near
Carry these words with you
Carry them close to your heart
So I can be your comfort
Even when we must be apart
Ask me
Ask me to let go
