What you're sayin' it never really crossed my mind |
|
I hear playin' and everybody's keepin' time |
|
I'm recallin' that girl I met in London town |
|
She was strange, young and tender and narrowed all my choices down |
|
Chorus: |
|
we ran away into the night hypnotized |
|
You carved your name right next to mine, English Eyes |
|
I was tryin' to read her lips and knew the time was drawing near |
|
I forgot what she said but I remember how she whispered in my ear |
|
I can hear laughter coming from the places we once knew |
|
There were stories from a stranger out of nowhere but they seemed so true |
|
Chorus |
|
English Eyes, English Eyes |
|
(Instrumental break) |
|
English Eyes |
|
Red sky warning, girl you really put a spell on me |
|
Never told me 'bout the daddy you refused to please |
|
You took the bishop when the king was standing right in front of you |
|
There's nothing in it if I can't have a girl with eyes like you |
|
Chorus repeats 2x |
|
English Eyes, yeah, English Eyes, English Eyes |
