Carole King
My Lovin’ Eyes
[Verse 1]
It's hard enough to hear you
Express your sympathy
But it's harder still to feel the things
My eyes refuse to see

[Chorus]
Oh, my lovin' eyes (Oh, my lovin' eyes)
When you look upon them, darlin', like you do
You bring these tears into
My lovin' eyes (Lovin' eyes)

[Verse 2]
I watch you take my self-respect
Accepting each excuse
When I've never seen the reason
For your moods or your abuse

[Chorus]
Oh, my lovin' eyes (Oh, my lovin' eyes)
They hold you like the heavens hold the sun
But look what you've done to
My lovin' eyes (My lovin' eyes)

[Bridge]
Like a man whose way is righteous
His faith in life resigned
I'm a child whose eyes are sightless
And my faith in you is truly blind
[Verse 3]
And it's sad to think of living
As pain that we must feel
But it's sadder still to think of love
As something you conceal

[Chorus]
Oh, my lovin' eyes (Oh, my lovin' eyes)
When you look upon them, darlin', like you do
You bring these tears into
My lovin' eyes (Lovin' eyes)
My lovin' eyes

[Outro]
Ah, my lovin' eyes (Lovin' eyes)
My lovin' eyes
(My lovin' eyes)
