情人眼裏

By 袁鳳瑛

凝望你眼睛 寧願我沒眼睛
無謂看盡你真情
回味你笑聲 殘酷卻動聽
寧願記憶暫停
明白我是你的期望你是我的
無奈愛沒有公平
從來易落淚的人
從未落淚的人
情就這樣犧牲
凝望你轉身 寧願我沒誕生
從未發現你多動人
寧願你是女人 難共我合襯
然後各自找別人
尋覓那陣快感 來自你髮根
纏住你或我的命運
如能盡力望多一次
緣份便慢半拍終止
怕過一眼後 已經太遲
如若對着你哭 寧願過後再哭
無謂看漏你的面容
寧願永未接觸 無奈已遇上
無路向地追逐
纏住你是痛苦 離別你亦痛苦
難繼續也得繼續
如若我願退出 流盡眼淚退出
含笑面對孤獨
如若拒絕退出 留待世事結束
難望有合理的結局
