Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
- I’ve known a lot of girls with eyes
Of blue and brown and gray
And some of them were sad
And some were gay
But when I met you, dear
I really learned what eyes could do
And since that day
I’ve loved no one but you
Chorus:
I never knew what two blues eyes could do
Until the day when first you looked at me
At last I’d found the sweetheart of my dream
When in your eyes, I saw the lovelight gleam
Two eyes of blue just drove my blues away
I knew that happiness had come to stay
Your eyes alone were all that said I love you
But then I knew what eyes could do
- When first I looked into your eyes
The sun began to shine
And all the gray clouds seemed to pass away
I read a message in your eyes
That told me you were mine
I never knew that eyes could talk that way
