These Brown Eyes

Song byAmerica
in AlbumHarbor

Written by Dan Peek, ©1977

Found on Harbor.

These brown eyes of mine

They've been doin' some powerful cryin'

Thinkin' 'bout all those years

That always bring back the tears

Winter's come and gone

And I've been left alone

Now I'm here home with you (I'm here home with you)

I do all the things that you do

Then I stop and I look around

I never know if my feet touch the ground

But oh, baby, I know you're right

Seems like a long, long time

Since I've held you in these arms of mine

Thinkin' 'bout all those years (Thinkin' 'bout all those years)

That always bring back the tears

The winter's come and gone

And I've been left all alone

But, oh, baby, I know you're right

And now that you're far away

I think of your love

And I'm praying that you're still mine

These brown eyes of mine

They've been doin' some powerful cryin'

Thinkin' 'bout all those years (Thinkin' 'bout all those years)

That always bring back the tears

Then I stop and I look around

I never know if my feet touch the ground

But oh, baby, I know you're right

Baby, I know you're right

Baby, I know you're right
