"Her Blue
Eyes" is a cautionary tale, I guess. It's about seeing somebody in
a place you've
been, and knowing from experience that they've got some troubles up ahead. -Steve H. |
1. I see you standin' beside her /
you're lookin' like a happy man
She's gazin' at you / with love in
her eyes / and holdin' on tight to your hand
She's tellin' everyone she adores
you / well, all I've got to say
Is : "her blue eyes / used to look
at me that way"
chorus: Her blue eyes / are
bright / and her kisses are warm
But down inside / her heart is like
/ a freezing winter storm
She looks like a dream / but she's
not what she seems
You'll find out one of these days
Her blue eyes / used to look at me
that way
2. I know you think she'll love you
forever / and I ain't sayin' you're wrong
But forever to her / is the time
that it takes / until somebody new comes along
That fire's gonna turn to ashes /
then you'll be the one to say
"Her blue eyes / used to look at
me that way"
chorus: Her blue eyes / are
bright / and her kisses are warm
But down inside / her heart is like
/ a freezing winter storm
She looks like a dream / but she's
not what she seems
You'll find out one of these days
Her blue eyes / used to look at me
that way.
"Her Blue
Eyes" appears on the Steve Haggard CD,
