Brown Eyes (For Joe Shheran) - Christy Moore[00:00:00]
One summer evening drunk as hell[00:00:16]
I sat there nearly lifeless [00:00:20]
An old man in the corner sang [00:00:25]
Where the water lilies grow [00:00:28]
On the jukebox Johnny sang [00:00:33]
About a thing called love [00:00:37]
"how are you kid [00:00:41]
What's your name [00:00:44]
And what do you know "[00:00:45]
In blood and death 'neath a screaming sky[00:00:49]
I lay down on the ground [00:00:53]
The arms and legs of other men[00:00:57]
Were scattered all around [00:01:01]
Some prayed and cursed [00:01:05]
Then cursed and prayed[00:01:07]
And then they prayed some more [00:01:09]
And the only thing that I could see [00:01:13]
Was a pair of brown eyes[00:01:18]
They were looking at me [00:01:19]
When we got back [00:01:22]
Labeled parts one to three [00:01:23]
There was no fairer brown eyes waiting for me [00:01:26]
And a rovin' a rovin' a rovin' I'll go [00:01:30]
For a pair of brown eyes [00:01:34]
For a pair of brown eyes [00:01:38]
I looked at him he looked at me [00:01:44]
All I could do was hate him [00:01:48]
While Ray and Philomena sang [00:01:52]
Of my elusive dream [00:01:56]
I saw the streams and the rolling hills [00:02:00]
Where his brown eyes were waiting [00:02:04]
And I thought about a pair of brown eyes [00:02:08]
That waited once for me [00:02:13]
That waited once for me [00:02:17]
So drunk as hell I left the place [00:02:23]
Sometimes walking sometimes crawling [00:02:26]
A hungry sound came through the breeze [00:02:31]
So I gave the walls a talking [00:02:35]
And I heard the sounds of long ago [00:02:39]
From the old canal [00:02:44]
And the birds were whistling in the trees [00:02:47]
Where the wind was gently laughing [00:02:51]
And a rovin' a rovin' a rovin' I'll go [00:02:56]
A rovin' a rovin' a rovin' I'll go [00:03:00]
And a rovin' a rovin' a rovin' I'll go [00:03:04]
For a pair of brown eyes [00:03:08]
For a pair of brown eyes [00:03:12]
And a rovin' a rovin' a rovin' I'll go [00:03:18]
A rovin' a rovin' a rovin' I'll go [00:03:22]
And a rovin' a rovin' a rovin' I'll go [00:03:26]
For a pair of brown eyes [00:03:30]
For a pair of brown eyes[00:03:34]
