Dark Eyes lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Dark Eyes lyrics Oh, the gentlemen are talking and the midnight moon is on the riverside They re drinking up and walking and it is time for me to slide I live in another world where life and death are memorized Where the earth is strung with lover s pearls and all I see are dark eyes. A cock is crowing far away and another soldier s deep in prayer Some mother s child has gone astray, she can t find him anywhere But I can hear another drum beating for the dead that rise Whom nature s beast fears as they come and all I see are dark eyes. They tell me to be discreet for all intended purposes They tell me revenge is sweet and from where they stand, I m sure it is But I feel nothing for their game, where beauty goes unrecognized All I feel is heat and flame, and all I see are dark eyes. Oh, the French girl, she s in paradise and a drunken man is at the wheel Hunger pays a heavy prize to the falling gods of speed and steel Oh, time is short and the days are sweet and passion rules the arrow that flies A million faces at my feet but all I see are dark eyes. song lyrics
