IMPONDERABLE

WE SEE BUT WE DO NOT SEE
WE LOOK BUT WE CANNOT FIND
THE ANSWERS TO OUR QUESTIONS
THE ANSWERS IN OUR MIND
WHAT IS IT WE SEEK
WHAT IS IT WE WANT
WHERE CAN WE FIND IT
WHERE CAN WE SEARCH

WHEN I LOOK INTO YOUR EYES
WHAT THEN DO I SEE
THE WARMTH OF YOUR HEART
THE LOVE TO BE MINE
I LOOK AS HARD AS I CAN
BUT I CANNOT SEE
THAT WHICH IS BEFORE ME
THAT WHICH IS IN YOUR MIND

HELP ME TO SEE
HELP ME TO FIND
OPEN YOUR HEART
OPEN YOUR MIND
TO THAT WHICH I SEEK
TO THAT WHICH I NEED
FOR I AM LOOKING
ALTHOUGH I AM BLIND

ALLOW ME TO SEE
ALLOW ME TO FIND
THAT WHICH I AM SEEKING
THAT WHICH IS TO BE MINE
LOOKING AT YOU
LOOKING TO SEE
THE ANSWER TO MY QUESTION
THAT CHURNS IN MY MIND

FOR AS OF NOW
I CANNOT SEE
FOR AS OF NOW
I CANNOT FIND
THAT WHICH I SEEK
THAT WHICH I NEED
YOUR LOVE
TO BE MINE
NO MATTER HOW FAR
NO MATTER HOW NEAR
NO MATTER HOW HARD
I TRY TO SEE
I DO NOT SEE
I CANNOT FIND
I AM BLIND.
