Blue eyes Baby's got blue eyes Like a deep blue sea On a blue blue day Blue eyes Baby's got blue eyes When the morning comes I'll be far away And I say Blue eyes holding back the tears Holding back the pain Baby's got blue eyes And she's alone Again Blue eyes Baby's got blue eyes Like a clear blue sky Watching over me Blue eyes Ooh I love blue eyes When I'm by her side Where I long to be I will see Blue eyes laughing in the sun Laughing in the rain Baby's got blue eyes And I am home, and I am home again Blue eyes laughing in the sun Laughing in the rain Baby's got blue eyes And I am home again
