Green Eyes Song Lyrics

GREEN EYES (Aquellos Ojos Verdes)
Cancion Bolero
Translation by E. Rivera and E. Woods
Spanish Lyrics by Adolfo Utrera
Music by Nilo Menendez


Life held no charm, dear, un-til I met you
Love al-ways seemed oh, so far a way.
Your eyes met mine now I can't for-get you
Dark nights be-come as bright as the day.

(Moderator - Chorus)
Your Green Eyes with their soft lights.
Your Eyes that prom-ise sweet nights
Bring to my soul a long-ing
A thirst for love di-vine.
In dreams I seem to hold you
To find you and en-fold you
Our lips meet, and our hearts too,
with a thrill so su-lime.
Those cool and lim-pid Green Eyes
A pool where in my love lies
so deep, that in my search-ing
For hap-pi-ness, I fear
That they will ev-er haunt me
All through my life they'll taunt me
But will they ev-er want me
Green Eyes make my dreams come true.
Your Green Eyes with their true...

[We also have a second version of this popular melody.]

GREEN EYES (Aquellos Ojos Verdes)
Cancion Bolero
English Lyrics by L. Wolfe Gilbert
Spanish Lyric by Adolfo Utrera
Music by Nilo Menendez


Such cap-ti-vating Green Eyes,
Those ten-der and se-rene eyes,
Those nev-er ev-er mean eyes,
They're so lov-ing and true.
The sea be-neath the blue skies
Is re-flect-ing your Green Eyes,
And the trees in the wood-land
keep re-mind-ing me too
My heart where in my love lies
Is tell-ing me of love ties,
I look in-to your Green Eyes
and won-der if you care.
My dreams are all a-bout you,
And when ev-er I doubt you,
I look in-to your Green Eyes
and I find my heav-en there.

I can understand you're living in a prison I know you can only see me as a vision I might fade away With the coming of a new dawn And your heart is breaking What are you gonna do now That you're tired of faking it What are you gonna do now Well, it's hard to take it When you know what happens each time The devil with the green eyes Said you were never meant to be mine Cause I came up from a dark world And every love I've ever known is dead If you came close enough to see I am inhuman I will tell you why you're feeling so uncertain Every word I say Has a way of turning evil in you And your heart is breaking What are you gonna do now That you're tired of faking it What are you gonna do now Well, it's hard to take it When you know what happens each time The devil with the green eyes Said you were never meant to be mine Cause I came up from a dark world And every love I've ever known is dead {c:Solo} And your heart is breaking What are you gonna do now That you're tired of faking it What are you gonna do now Well, it's hard to take it When you know what happens each time The devil with the green eyes Said you were never meant to be mine Cause I came up from a dark world And every love I've ever known is dead



"Cat People: Putting out Fire"


Music by Giorgio Moroder
Words by David Bowie.




See these eyes so green
I can stare for a thousand years
Colder than the moon
It's been so long

Feel my blood enraged
It's just the fear of losing you
Don't you know my name
Well, you been so long

And I've been putting out fire
With gasoline

See these eyes so red
Red like jungle burning bright
Those who feel me near
Pull the blinds and change their minds
It's been so long

Still this pulsing night
A plague I call a heartbeat
Just be still with me
Ya wouldn't believe what I've been thru
You've been so long
Well it's been so long
And I've been putting out the fire with gasoline
Putting out the fire
With gasoline

See these tears so blue
An ageless heart that can never mend
These tears can never dry
A judgement made can never bend

See these eyes so green
I can stare for a thousand years
Just be still with me
You wouldn't believe what I've been thru

You've been so long
Well it's been so long
And I've been putting out fire with gasoline
Putting out fire with gasoline

[Been so long]
[Been so long]
Well, it's been so long
[Been so long]
I've been putting out fire
[Been so long]
Well, it's been so long
[Been so long]
I've been putting out fire
[Been so long]
It's been so long
[Been so long]
Putting out fire
[Been so long]

Been so long
[So long, so long]
Been so long
[So long, so long]
Been putting out fire
[Been so long, so long, so long]
Been putting out fire
[Been so long, so long, so long]
Been so long

[Been so long, so long, so long
Been so long, so long, so long]
I've been putting out fire
[Been so long, so long, so long]
Been putting out fire
[Been so long, so long, so long]
Been so long
[So long, so long]
Been so long
[So long, so long]
Been so long
[So long, so long]




GREEN EYED LADY

performed by Sugarloaf

green-eyed lady, lovely lady
strolling slowly towards the sun 
green-eyed lady, ocean lady 
soothing every raging wave that comes

 

green-eyed lady, passion's lady 
dressed in love, she lives for life to be
green-eyed lady feels life I never see
setting suns and lonely lovers free 

 

green-eyed lady, wind-swept lady 
rules the night, the waves, the sand
 green-eyed lady, ocean lady 
child of nature, friend of man




GREEN EYES

(Capo 4) Intro: G G G G- G/F#- Em Em G Every night we light the candle D G G/F# Em That stands beside our bed C Sometimes the flame s too much to handle, G D That s what you said, that s what you said Em And you should know C G Cuz you built a fire in me and you made it burn C G D You followed me watching every move, matching every turn G D CHO: No your green eyes they don t miss a thing Em C They hold me like the sun going down A D Warm me like a fire in the night Em D Em Without a sound - mmm - mmm You were waiting till I heard, Just as patient as the lovelight in your eyes You never threw away a word, Or ever talked in a disguise And I should know You were a beacon to a sailor lost at sea I felt it in your eyes when you looked at me so openly (Chorus) The first time I ever saw your laughter Break loose inside and tumble out to me My heart knew it had found what it was after, And it came so easily We should know After all the years of the hard and the heavy times Now our days go by like best friends story lines, yours and mine (Chorus)

NO GREEN EYES

(Suzy Bogguss, Pat Bunch, Doug Crider)
In my heart there always crept a jealousy that never slept
It lived on calls that never came, and whispers of another's name
But your love is a light that shines so honestly
And now because of your true colors I can see

No green eyes, no blue nights
No jealous heart and no little white lies
You showed me what love looks like
I had the colors all wrong, now they're right
No green eyes, no blue nights

Your arms laid to rest the fear, and let suspicion disappear
There are no ghosts of lovers past, just our love in the hourglass
And what you give me is so constant and so surely mine
That I can trust it's unconditional this time

No green eyes, no blue nights
No jealous heart and no little white lies
You showed me what love looks like
I had the colors all wrong, now they're right

No green eyes, no blue nights
You showed me what love looks like
No green eyes, no blue nights, no green eyes

Not Because You Can (Miller/Thayer)


If your eyes are green you will turn and stay sixteen
Never disappointed by a show of hands
And if your eyes are soft you can turn it on and off
You won't be shy when making your demands
And if your eyes are slow
You will always be a lonely woman
And not because you can
No, the time is now for deciding if you can

- Game Theory, from their Lolita Nation album
