Dark Eyes
Oh, the gentlemen are talking and the midnight moon is on riverside.the

Theyre 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 lovers pearls and all I see are dark eyes.

A cock is crowing far away and another soldiers deep in prayer.
Some mothers child has gone astray, she cant find him anywhere.

But I can hear another drum beating for the dead that rise.

Whom natures 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, Im sure it is.

But I feel nothing for their game where beauty goes unrecognised.

All I feel is heat and flame and all I see are dark eyes.

Oh, the french girl, shes 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 passion rules the arrow that flies.

A million faces at my feet but all I see are dark eyes.
