One summer evening drunk to hell | |
I sat there nearly lifeless | |
An old man in the corner sang | |
Where the water lilies grow | |
And on the jukebox Johnny sang | |
About a thing called love | |
And it's how are you kid and what's your name | |
And how would you bloody know? | |
In blood and death 'neath a screaming sky | |
I lay down on the ground | |
And the arms and legs of other men | |
Were scattered all around | |
Some cursed, some prayed, some prayed then cursed | |
Then prayed and bled some more | |
And the only thing that I could see | |
Was a pair of brown eyes that was looking at me | |
But when we got back, labeled parts one to three | |
There was no pair of brown eyes waiting for me | |
And a rovin' a rovin' a rovin' I'll go | |
For a pair of brown eyes | |
I looked at him he looked at me | |
All I could do was hate him | |
While Ray and Philomena sang | |
Of my elusive dream | |
I saw the streams, the rolling hills | |
Where his brown eyes were waiting | |
And I thought about a pair of brown eyes | |
That waited once for me | |
So drunk to hell I left the place | |
Sometimes crawling sometimes walking | |
A hungry sound came across the breeze | |
So I gave the walls a talking | |
And I heard the sounds of long ago | |
From the old canal | |
And the birds were whistling in the trees | |
Where the wind was gently laughing | |
And a rovin' a rovin' a rovin' I'll go | |
For a pair of brown eyes |

About a thing called love | |
And it' s how are you kid and what' s your name | |
And how would you bloody know? | |
In blood and death ' neath a screaming sky | |
I lay down on the ground | |
And the arms and legs of other men | |
Were scattered all around | |
Some cursed, some prayed, some prayed then cursed | |
