Lyrics
Ocean Eyes
Well, you know I can?t remember, well, you know I can?t recall,
Was it April or September, when you made that fatal call.
You were born in Honolulu, you were born out by the sea,
You make love a roller coaster, when you do those things to me.
No, don?t you go, don?t you say goodbye,
I?ll taste your love, hear your sweetened cries,
We?ve just begun, don?t let a good thing die,
You cast a spell with your ocean eyes.
You put on your sweet surrender, you put on my old blue jeans,
I got it back, return to sender, the loose ends justify the means.
Your long blonde hair caressed the night sky, your long blonde hair in the pale moonlight,
The sand, the surf, the bay at sunrise, revealed the secrets of the night.
No, don?t you go, don?t you say goodbye,
I?ll taste your love, hear your sweetened cry,
We?ve just begun, don?t let a good thing die,
You cast a spell with your ocean eyes.
