Lyrics

Pirate Eyes

It?s not like we ever stood a chance

I knew we weren?t suited from the start

I jumped in for the kick of it

But there?s the dirty trick of it

Romance blew my self-esteem apart.


But if I could do it all again

I would take the same gamble even then.

Cause even though my brain said no

My heart was mesmerized,

By your beautiful Pirate?s Eyes.


I know it?s a stupid thing to say

And you probably know it anyway

That even though it hurts to love

It?s better than to be scared of

The one who has thrown the chance your way.


So though we know our affair must end

If I stay we might do each other in

And you always used your rapier wit

To cut me down to size,

I?ll still miss your Pirate?s Eyes


I?ll still miss your Pirate?s Eyes


I?ll still love your Pirate?s Eyes.
