Avik Datta Gupta - FACE READING

I have been reading your face..all night long


And I've been thinking a lot..to write this song


As you smile into my eyes, and you ask me to say..


What I'd been thinking of you all day!


If I said, you thought a mile, you'd say 'not an inch! '


And chaff to leave me bantered, and fly off like a finch


You said I read faces, and you were very true


How you ever knew that, I never had a clue


And now you seem to test if I can compare


To your face reading skills, which gives me a scare


Before I could read one word..so true


I guess I got read ten times by you..


Like an even open re-read book


With just one wide eyed look..


You pretend not to understand, my unsaid phrases


Hovering in the air, singing your praises


As you ask me bewildered to read your face


As I am lost for words to describe the grace.


I've a long way to go to reach your mind


As my angel of mercy is very unkind


And now as you smile, all I can do is guess


To read those unsaid words hurled from your face.


Words of yearning get dampened when said


So I wrote it on a paper and kept it unread


But lady..good lady will you ever know


I wrote this little song on your facial glow


Can you read it on my face, as I write this song


As I try to read your face all night long
