Lyrics
I felt my heart grow heavy,
My body growing weak,
I found a place to rest,
Where my bones could creak.
I listened to the rain,
On the old tin roof,
I missed you all my friends,
Now isn't that the truth?
I'm not the same man,
I thought I was last night,
Now my life seems full of ghosts.
And the things that hurt the most.
In your eyes, in your eyes, in your eyes.
In your eyes, in your eyes, in your eyes.
I know the years that passed,
Weren't so good for me,
I wished for better times,
In your company.
I thought you always knew,
I didn't think to ask,
Now I'm here all alone,
My time is fading fast.
I have my reservations,
And sometimes I feel blue,
But I have to give up some day,
If I'm going to pull through.
I'll face down my accuser,
My reflection in the hall.
I don't know if it means a lot?
Or anything at all?
I've been away for so long,
I admit that I was wrong
In your eyes, in your eyes, in your eyes.
In your eyes, in your eyes, in your eyes.
However far I travel,
It's never far enough.
I sort of got lost,
In the midst of all that stuff.
In awkward conversations,
Where nothing's ever said.
To cold nights spent alone,
Where the heart is never fed.
I felt my heart grow heavy,
My body growing weak,
I found a place to rest,
Where my bones could creak.
I listened to the rain,
On the old tin roof,
I missed you all my friends,
Now isn't that the truth?
I'm not the same man,
I thought I was last night.
Now my life seems full of ghosts,
And the things that hurt the most.
In your eyes, in your eyes, in your eyes.
In your eyes, in your eyes, in your eyes.
In your eyes, in your eyes, in your eyes.
In your eyes, in your eyes, in your eyes.
