Brown eyes,
why must you follow me
Your pools of murky water
glisten in the shadows

Brown eyes....
Don't run away from me
Follow me until the sun don't shine any longer

Brown eyes,
hold me, until the moon is high in the sky

Why must you have brown eyes?

You stare right through me with those
damn brown eyes

I was lonely
you were lonely
I was happy
you were sad
We made love
and then you kissed me
love is a powerful word but with those brown eyes i believed you

A baby grew; inside my womb
you weren't there
I wasn't ready to be alone again
'
So i trapped you

We shared that bottle of gin
I watched as your brown eyes faded into black
Now you don't have brown eyes

Just blood shot murky black

I took that gin and then i fell; into your arms
those brown eyes peaceful

We fell into each other
stole from one another

But baby i wish your brown eyes were blue
