Lyrics
Eyes of blue, why can’t you, can’t you be true
If you knew, just what you’re making me do
Tell me what, I know I know what I’ve got
Chorus
Those blue-eyed blues, are making me blue
Those blue-eyed blues, all come from you
I know that they, don’t mean what they say
They haunt me too, the whole night thru
How they stare, and they taunt me everywhere
I knew they couldn’t be true
Although they’re blue, they couldn’t be true
If they’re here, if they’re there, anywhere I declare
It’s no use, I can’t lose those blue-eyed blues
Patter
I was crazy for someone with eyes of brown
But I found out that someone had turned me down
Met somebody with beautiful eyes of gray
They were bad, too, and I had to
Fall for someone with beautiful eyes of black
They were wrong, too
And that’s just why I came back
Back to someone with beautiful eyes of blue
Not to sever, never ever lose
