I See My Future When I Look At You
LYRICS
I was a desert till you came along
Where clocks ticked slow, all day long
On an uneven path where I didn’t belong
Till you came along and made me strong
In your eyes, there’s a spark
Lighting up the hidden dark
With every look, you outsmart
And find a way into my heart
I was a desert till you came along
Now I see a future where I belong
With every word, my hope you renew
I see my future when I look at you
See my future when I look at you
In the quiet before your light shone
A lonely path, that stretched too long
You came in, like a summer’s song
In your love, I truly belong
Your gaze holds stories untold
In your eyes, futures unfold
With each look, I grow bold
In your world, I want to hold
I was a desert till you came along
Now I see a future where I belong
With every word, my hope you renew
I see my future when I look at you
See my future when I look at you
In your gaze, a hidden key
Every glance, a mystery
Below surfaces, there’s much more
A world of wonders to explore
I was a desert till you came along
Now I see a future where I belong
With every word, my hope you renew
I see my future when I look at you
See my future when I look at you
I was a desert till you came along
Now I see a future where I belong
With every word, my hope you renew
I see my future when I look at you
See my future when I look at you
No more a desert, life’s a joyful song
With you, is where my heart does belong
On the path where the old turns new
I see my future when I look at you
See my future when I look at you

The lyrics emphasize the power of Cath’s presence in my life, which allows me to experiment with my music, revealing untold stories and unseen futures. The love experience is enlightening, giving me strength and a sense of belonging. The song culminates in the realization that with this newfound love, life is no longer desolate but a joyful journey, and the future is now something to look forward to with optimism and hope.
