brandy eyes
Eyes that send me Chasing after feelings that I lost one day Why befriend me, when the brandy tells me What they want to say Playing big protector is a grand disguise Till you contradict yourself with brandy eyes. No beginning, still no end to let me shrug and walk away Silly grinning, teasing talking promise of a kiss someday I would put you out of mind if I were wise But wisdom has no power over brandy eyes. Maybe I'm wrong If I am please pardon me and pat my head Sing an old song, sing of one more foolish heart That's been mislead Take the points for winning and donate the prize And keep right on a-scoring with those brandy eyes.
