lyrics

Her Eyes

Her eyes will greet me on a Monday if I see her
Her eyes will defeat me as she sweetly passes by.

Her eyes will inform me on a Tuesday if I see her
Her eyes will warn me that she loves me no more.

Chorus
I sit outside of cafes in the greyness of this city
As she drives by with her daughter & gives me an unwilling wave
I sit outside of cafes drowning in self-pity
Forget her, yes, I ought to yet to her my heart’s a slave.

Her eyes will taunt me on a Wednesday if I see her
Her eyes will haunt me like my love she threw away.

Her eyes will kill me on a Thursday if I see her
Her eyes will fill me with her indifferent scorn.

Chorus

Her eyes will mock me on a Friday if I see her
Her eyes will shock me with their icy distain.

Her eyes will chill me on a Saturday if I see her
Her eyes will fill me with a lonely despair.

Chorus

(Instrumental)

Her eyes will appear on a Sunday if I see her
Her eyes will jeer at my love that still remains.

Her eyes will stare on a Monday if I see her
Her eyes not care about this broken hearted man
Her eyes not care about this broken hearted man
Her eyes not care about this broken hearted man.
