(Looking Through) The eyes of night Songtext

von Shari Belafonte

Had enough of troubled evenings
One too many sleepless nights.
Seems you made off with the morning
It's never light.
You took the sunshine from my life,
I can feel that darkness waiting
Like a prowler round my door.
Knows my love's ripe for the taking
And it's hungry for more.

Looking through the eyes of night
Too blind to see the light,
Lost in a world of memories.
Looking through the eyes of night
Can't find a star in sight
To wish upon till you belong to me.

Hope you know just where you're going
Freedom's not so hard to find,
But when the lonliness starts showing
Just look behind.
It's not too late to change your mind.
If I'm the paper, you're the fire
Nothing left to feed the flames,
Love can't live on sheer desire
It burns away.

Looking through the eyes of night
Too blind to see the light
Lost in a world of memories.
Looking through the eyes of night,
Can't find a star in sight
To wish upon till you belong to me.

Your love goes the way the wind blows
So restlessly.
But I'll wait until it carries you back to me
'cause I'm looking through the eyes of night.
