[Verso 1]
Sometimes I feel so happy
Sometimes I feel so sad
Sometimes I feel so happy
But mostly you just make me mad
Baby, you just make me mad

[Refrão]
Linger on your pale blue eyes
Linger on your pale blue eyes

[Verso 2]
Thought of you as my mountaintop
Thought of you as my peak
Thought of you as everything
I've had, but couldn't keep
I've had, but couldn't keep

[Refrão]
Linger on your pale blue eyes
Linger on your pale blue eyes

[Verso 3]
If I could make the world as pure
And strange as what I see
I'd put you in a mirror
I put in front of me
I put in front of me
[Refrão]
Linger on your pale blue eyes
Linger on your pale blue eyes

[Ponte]
Skip a life completely
Stuff it in a cup
She said "money is like us in time
It lies, but can't stand up"
Down for you is up

[Refrão]
Linger on your pale blue eyes
Linger on your pale blue eyes

[Instrumental and vocal break]

[Verso 4]
It was good what we did yesterday
And I'd do it once again
The fact that you are married
Only proves you're my best friend
But it's truly, truly a sin

[Refrão]
Linger on your pale blue eyes
Linger on your pale blue eyes
Linger on
Linger on your pale blue eyes
