Thieving Love

I stole a heart with nothing but my eyes,
a treasure impossible to attain.
It spoke of love in whispered vows and sighs.

While thieves stand much to gain from selfish lies,
it drummed for me alone and would not wane.
I stole a heart with nothing but my eyes.

Think me false, but imagine my surprise;
to hear such things, I must have gone insane.
It spoke of love in whispered vows and sighs.

A thief I am, but I am also wise
enough to know I had to break its chain.
I stole a heart with nothing but my eyes.

Nestled inside me it no longer cries,
content with guiding my body and brain.
It spoke of love in whispered vows and sighs.

Once upon a union which never dies,
traveling on this lonesome loveless lane,
I stole a heart with nothing but my eyes.
It spoke of love in whispered vows and sighs.
