DON'T LOOK IN MY EYES
(Brian Potter / Frank Wildhorn)

Kenny Rogers


All my memory is safely packed
And my dreams are neatly folded away
I’ve got nothing to show
To a love that might have told okay
All the tables and chairs
They’re standing empty and bare
And there isn’t any sign
You were here
So jsut walk out of the door
Try not to get too near

You might look in my eyes
And see all the pain
And sadness deep inside
Don’t look in my eyes
That’s where I keep the tears I can’t hide
If you’ve just gone, it’ll be alright
I know I’ll get through the night
And I even smile
As we say our goodbyes
Just don’t look in my eyes

All our photographs are stored away
And our letters are there burned in the fire
There’s nothing left here
That make me believer
We had nights of tender love and desire
If this seems to be gray
I’d like to hide away
There’s nothing to remind me of you
When you walk out of the door
Just be sure whatever you do

Don’t look in my eyes
And see all the pains
And sadness deep inside
Don’t look in my eyes
That’s where I keep the tears I can’t hide
If you’ve just gone, it’ll be alright
I know I’ll make it through the night
And I even smile
As we say our goodbyes
Just don’t look in my eyes
