when green eyes turn blue

every single time

it becomes too much

there's nothing i can say

or i can touch

but the glory is

as it comes passing through

i know i will be there

when green eyes turn blue

it's the same for me

time appears to teach

there is nothing quite beyond our reach

wits may sharpen up

their cuts and clever flays

let them squander all of them

you brighten up my darkest gaze

and as a consequence i can see out of the gloom

that i gathered about myself

that i thought would flatter me

what the hell was the matter with me

every single time i approached despair

i thought of your name and you were there

i won't burden you

as promises will do

but i know i will be there

when green eyes turn blue.
