judy collins - dark eyes lyrics

Loading...

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 c-ck is crowing far away
and another soldier’s deep in prayer
some mother’s child has gone astray
and 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 price
to the falling gods of speed and steel

oh, time is short and the days are sweet
and p-ssion rules the arrow that flies
a million faces at my feet
and all i see are dark eyes
