lyrics

Those​ ​eyes​ ​that​ ​answer​ ​will​ ​be​ ​out​ ​tonight
Those​ ​sparkling​ ​devils​ ​in​ ​the​ ​evening​ ​air
And​ ​all​ ​my​ ​angels​ ​tell​ ​me​ ​there’s​ ​no​ ​doubt
those​ ​eyes​ ​that​ ​answer​ ​never​ ​leave​ ​ya

I​ ​saw​ ​their​ ​beauty​ ​in​ ​the​ ​morning​ ​light
and​ ​by​ ​my​ ​breakfast​ ​I​ ​was​ ​sold
And​ ​all​ ​the​ ​stories​ ​round​ ​the​ ​grounds​ ​were​ ​right
but​ ​it​ ​goes​ ​far​ ​beyond​ ​what​ ​has​ ​been​ ​told

Oh,​ ​I’m​ ​a​ ​man​ ​of​ ​many​ ​words
Most​ ​of​ ​which​ ​not​ ​anyone​ ​has​ ​heard
Oh,​ ​but​ ​I’ma​ ​take​ ​this​ ​to​ ​the​ ​lawns
and​ ​tell​ ​it​ ​like​ ​I’ve​ ​never​ ​done​ ​before

Those​ ​eyes​ ​that​ ​answer​ ​will​ ​be​ ​out​ ​tonight
Those​ ​far​ ​off​ ​faces​ ​of​ ​the​ ​evening​ ​air
And​ ​all​ ​my​ ​instincts​ ​tell​ ​me​ ​there’s​ ​no​ ​doubt
those​ ​long​ ​gone​ ​faces​ ​never​ ​leave​ ​ya

I​ ​saw​ ​my​ ​future​ ​in​ ​their​ ​silhouette;
it​ ​looked​ ​like​ ​shadows​ ​in​ ​the​ ​shine
And​ ​I​ ​couldn’t​ ​tell​ ​ya​ ​what​ ​it​ ​means​ ​just​ ​yet
but​ ​it​ ​meant​ ​so​ ​much​ ​to​ ​me​ ​at​ ​the​ ​time

Oh,​ ​bring​ ​it​ ​on​ ​back​ ​to​ ​me
from​ ​the​ ​lake​ ​house,​ ​to​ ​the​ ​foyer,​ ​to​ ​the​ ​beach
Oh,​ ​I’m​ ​a​ ​man​ ​put​ ​in​ ​his​ ​place
for​ ​when​ ​I​ ​looked​ ​into​ ​their​ ​eyes​ ​I​ ​saw​ ​my​ ​face

Those​ ​eyes​ ​that​ ​answer​ ​will​ ​be​ ​out​ ​tonight
That​ ​tear​ ​drop​ ​mercy​ ​of​ ​the​ ​evening​ ​air
And​ ​all​ ​my​ ​numbers​ ​tell​ ​me​ ​there’s​ ​no​ ​doubt
those​ ​eyes​ ​that​ ​answer​ ​never​ ​leave​ ​ya

The​ ​crowds​ ​and​ ​the​ ​crowds​ ​and​ ​the​ ​crowds
and​ ​the​ ​crowds​ ​taken​ ​one​ ​at​ ​a​ ​time
Thousands​ ​and​ ​thousands​ ​and​ ​thousands
and​ ​thousands​ ​and​ ​thousands​ ​all​ ​in​ ​a...
x​ ​4

Those​ ​eyes​ ​that​ ​answer​ ​will​ ​be​ ​out​ ​tonight
Those​ ​sparkling​ ​devils​ ​in​ ​the​ ​evening​ ​air
And​ ​all​ ​my​ ​angels​ ​tell​ ​me​ ​there’s​ ​no​ ​doubt
those​ ​eyes​ ​that​ ​answer​ ​never​ ​leave​ ​ya
