Il testo della Dark eyes

Oh, the gentlemen are talking and the midnight moon is on the riverside
They're drinking up and walking and it is time for me to slide
I live in another world where life and death are memorized
Where the earth is strung with lover's pearls and all i see are dark eyes.

A cock is crowing far away and another soldier's deep in prayer
Some mother's child has gone astray, she can't find him anywhere
But i hear another rum beating for the dead that rise
Whom nature's beast fear as they come and all i see are dark eyes.

They tell me to be discreet for all intended purposes
They tell me revenge is sweet, i'm sure it is
But i feel nothing for their game, where beauty goes unrecognized
All i feel is heat and flame, and all i see are dark eyes.

Oh, the french girl, she's in paradise and a drunken man is at the wheel
Hunger pays a heavy prize to the falling god of speed and steel
Oh, time is short and the days are sweet and passion rules the arrow that flies
A million faces at my feet but all i see are dark eyes.
