I don’t know why I just know I do I just can’t explain In this language that I use Something leaves me speechless Each time that you approach Each time you glide right through me As if I was a ghost If I only could tell you If you only would listen I’ve got a line or two to use on you I’ve got a romance we could christen And there’s a word in Spanish I don’t understand But I heard it in a film one time spoken by the leading man He said it with devotion, he sounded so sincere And the words he spoke in Spanish brought the female lead to tears A word in Spanish, a word in Spanish If you can’t comprehend Read it in my eyes If you don’t understand it’s love In a thin disguise And what it takes to move you Each time that you resist Is more than just a pretty face To prove that I exist When manners make no difference And my gifts all lay undone I trade my accent in on chance And fall back on a foreign tongue

Blue eyes Babys got blue eyes Like a deep blue sea On a blue blue day Blue eyes Babys got blue eyes When the morning comes Ill be far away And I say Blue eyes Holding back the tears Holding back the pain Babys got blue eyes And shes alone again Blue eyes Babys got blue eyes Like a clear blue sky Watching over me Blue eyes I love blue eyes When Im by her side Where I long to be I will see Blue eyes laughing in the sun Laughing in the rain Babys got blue eyes And I am home, and I am home again

I never dreamed I could cry so hard That ain't like a man I could fly like a bird some days Had a place where I could land I could have sworn we were all locked in Ain't that what you said I never knew it could hurt so bad When the power of love is dead But giving into the nighttime Ain't no cure for the pain You gotta wade into the water You gotta learn to live again And reach out for her healing hands Reach out for her healing hands There's a light, where the darkness ends Touch me now and let me see again Rock me now in your gentle healing hands I never knew love like poison That burned like a fire All I ever wanted was a reason To drown in your eyes I never knew sleep so restless Empty arms so cold That's not the way it's supposed to be It ain't the spell that I was sold
