Blues in the Eyes

I could see you walking my way

A flush went up and down my spine

And as you approached I said to me

“It’s the blues in the eyes”

We were sitting and conversing

And no one ever checked the time

How the hours seemed to slip right by

It’s the blues in the eyes

Oh

The blues in the eyes

Oh

The blues in the eyes

We would hold our thought yet with discretion

We’d let some information slide

Giving up a bit about myself

To the blues in her eyes

Oh

The blues in the eyes

Oh

The blues in the eyes

Every time you walk away

A flush goes up and down my spine

And as you approach

I always say to me

It’s the blues in the eyes
