WHEN THE LOVELIGHT STARTS SHINING THROUGH HIS EYES
(Brian & Edward Jr. Holland / Lamont Dozier)
Diana Ross & The Supremes - 1964
He gave me the eye
But I just passed him by
I treated him unkind
But he didn't seem to mind
I told him be on his way
But not a word did he say
He just stood there kind of bold
While I acted cold
But when the love-light starts shining through his eyes
Made me realise I should apologise
And when he placed a kiss upon my face
Then I knew, Oh then I knew
That he won my heart
So I quickly apologised
Hoping he hadn't changed his mind
But not a word did he say
So I turned to walk away
But when the love-light starts shining through his eyes
Made me realise how he felt inside
And when he placed a kiss upon my face
Then I knew, Oh then I knew
That he won my heart
When he asked could he walk my way
I hoped sweet things he'd say
Instead he smiled kind of nice
As he held my hand kind of tight
But when the love-light starts shining through his eyes
Made me realise how he felt inside
And when he placed a kiss upon my face
Then I knew, Oh then I knew
That he won my heart
But when the love-light starts shining through his eyes
Made me realise how he felt inside
And when he placed a kiss upon my face
