Green Eyes

Those green eyes with their soft light Those eyes that promise sweet night Brings to my soul a longing A thirst for love divine In dreams I seem to hold you To find you and enfold you Our lips meet and our hearts, too With a thrill so sublime Those cool and limpid green eyes A pool wherein my love lies So deep that in my searching For happiness I fear That they will ever haunt me All through my life they'll taunt me But will they ever want me? Green eyes Make my dreams come true Soft light And eyes that promise sweet night Brings to my soul a longing A thirst for love divine In dreams I seem to hold you To find you and enfold you Our lips meet and our hearts, too With a thrill so sublime Those cool and limpid green eyes A pool where in my love lies So deep that in my searching For happiness I fear That they will ever haunt me All through my life they'll taunt me But will they ever want me? Green eyes I love you --- Green Eyes - Jimmy Dorsey
