One Long Pair of Eyes Lyrics

In the tower, the lover sighs
Good Sir Knight, please take my eyes, I've used them
Doctor, doctor, I'm on fire
Oh, I'm sad to hear that squire, we're closing

She snuffs you out like silk
And pours you out like milk
And just before the dawn appears
Stealing all the blue away
And just before all your perspectives change, isn't it strange?


On the black Fellini sails
Tattered rags that hangs on nails reminds me
You the mistress of your chair
I the sergeant of your hair-you blind me

You turn me on like lights, a silver liquid light
That emanates inside of you
Decorates the room around and
Just before the curtains part for dawn
And everything's gone

She had one long pair of eyes
She had one long pair of eyes between her
One long pair of eyes
So she could see you

On the lone Norwegian shore
Lovers weep for evermore in evening
With the clouds above their heads
Go back to their lonesome beds and leave them

She falls on you like rain
When will she fall again?
Oh just before the dawn appears
Draining all the blue away and
Just before all your perspectives change, isn't that strange?

She had one long pair of eyes
One long pair of eyes between her
One long pair of eyes
So she could see you
