THERE ARE EYES
(Clay Keyes)
Studio Orchestra Dir. Carroll Gibbons
V. Melville Gideon
Recorded 22nd August 1928
Lovers learn to read the language of flowers
Stars are read by men we know to be wise
There’s a language I have studied for hours
Oh what a language, just a pair of eyes
There are eyes that are always smiling
There are eyes that are sometimes sad
There are eyes that are so beguiling
That they drive a lover mad
Eyes of blue, send your heart is a-soaring
Eyes of brown have a lot to say
But the eyes that shine in mine are so adoring
They’re my beautiful sweetheart’s wonderful eyes of grey
(Musical break)
There are eyes that are always smiling
There are eyes that are sometimes sad
There are eyes that are so beguiling
That they drive a lover mad
Eyes of blue, send your heart is a-soaring
Eyes of brown have a lot to say
But the eyes that shine in mine are so adoring
They’re my beautiful sweetheart’s wonderful eyes of grey
