I'm looking for Blue Eyes, has anyone seen him' Don't you tell me, he gave up on me. I'm looking for blue eyes, I've got to find him. Oh something tells me, he's looking for me There was a time when blue eyes said there was no other His one and only love, he swore I'd be. There was a time, when his blue eyes saw clearer than mine did Storms and rain, tears and pain, bring me back his way Looking for Blue Eyes, has anyone seen him' No don't you tell me, he gave up on me I'm looking for blue eyes, I've got to find him. Oh something tells me, he's looking for me I'm looking for Blue Eyes, has anyone seen him'
