I guess your eyes were hazel
They changed with every mood
From tender blue and loved-filled
To dark grey when subdued
You'd been out on your sailboat
A storm had come up fast
I never knew when I last kissed you
That that would be our last
Chorus
But what I remember are your eyes
How they changed just like the sea
From blue to green, then in between
To grey as you left me
Yeah, I remember most your eyes
Can’t think I’ll never see
Your kaleidoscope eyes full of life
They’ve closed eternally
Of all the pictures in my head
I keep seeing that lovely spark
That used to light up your eyes
Until my world turned dark
The hope I have to carry on
Is this child I have within
I hope he has his Daddy’s eyes
It’s like you’ll live again
Repeat chorus
