Violet Eyes

It's been awhile since you've been around

I've been drifting like a gypsy from town to town

I've been to France and Rome

Seen Duomo's glittered dome

I've slept beneath Spanish summer skies

But I've seen nothing as lovely

As your Violet eyes



Do you recall the shores of Greece?

The turquoise sea

I swore I won't forget your exact smile where we went

Sightseeing everything

And everywhere I go

I see your Violet eyes



Chorus:

Seasons come and seasons pass

Life can seem as fragile as a looking glass

I know that there is something more constant than time

For at night when I sleep, I feel you near me

I see you Violet eyes



If I could a postcard to you

I know somehow it would get through

I'm not sure I could express

This ache that's in my chest



I guess that I'll always miss you

And everywhere I go

I see you violet eyes



Chorus:

It was a year ago last Christmas

We spent in Hawaii

Laughing beneath the stars

Playing in the sand and in the sea

It'll be a year coming this fourth of July

When for the last time

You held my hand

You closed your violet eyes



Seasons come and seasons pass

Life can seem as fragile

Oh, as fragile as a looking glass

I know that there is something more constant than time

For at night when I sleep, I feel you near me

I hear your voice call me

I see your violet eyes
