Dusty Springfield (w/ Richard Carpenter) - Something In Your Eyes (with Richard Carpenter) lyrics

rate me

There was a certain face<br />

That filled a thousand nights<br />

With all the sweetest dreams<br />

And promises of paradise<br />

<br />

But that face was gone<br />

When the dawn would come and steal you<br />

Yet, I still could feel you<br />

Waiting just a kiss away<br />

<br />

I'd surely know your face<br />

Your love would cast a spell<br />

I'd recognize each curve and line of you<br />

I knew it well, now at last you're here and I can tell<br />

<br />

Something in your eyes I see<br />

Is all I ever wanted<br />

And something in your smile for me<br />

Is calling out my name<br />

<br />

Your eyes, it seems<br />

Are mirrors of my dreams<br />

In ways I can't explain<br />

And my heart will never be the same<br />

<br />

We never said a word<br />

As if we'd always known<br />

But through the bittersweet of waiting<br />

We were not alone<br />

<br />

Now we're close enough<br />

For the touch of love to find us<br />

Fantasies designed us<br />

But they never really could<br />

<br />

Begin to measure you<br />

No pictures ever do<br />

And as I watch you framed in sunlight<br />

In a sky of blue I know what my life's been leading to<br />

<br />

Something in your eyes I see<br />

Is all I ever wanted<br />

And something in your smile for me<br />

Is calling out my name<br />

<br />

Your eyes, it seems<br />

Are mirrors of my dreams<br />

In ways I can't explain<br />

And my heart will never be the same<br />

<br />

Something in your eyes I see<br />

Is all I've ever wanted<br />

And something in your smile for me<br />

Is calling out my name<br />

<br />

Your eyes, it seems<br />

Are mirrors of my dreams<br />

In ways I can't explain<br />

And my heart will never be the same<br />

And my heart will never be the same<br />

<br />

Something in your eyes
