Those Lovely Brown Eyes Song Lyrics [2]
I was walking down the street
When I saw a familiar face
Those lovely brown eyes
Stopped me in my place
I couldn't help but stare
Lost in their deep hue
Those lovely brown eyes
They had me feeling so brand new
Chorus:
Those lovely brown eyes
They're like a warm embrace
They pull me in closer
And I can't escape
I could get lost in them
For hours at a time
Those lovely brown eyes
They're like a sweet sunshine
Verse 2:
I've never felt this way before
But something about you
Those lovely brown eyes
They make me feel so true
I can see all your emotions
Reflecting in their shine
Those lovely brown eyes
They're like a window to your mind
Chorus:
Those lovely brown eyes
They're like a warm embrace
They pull me in closer
And I can't escape
I could get lost in them
For hours at a time
Those lovely brown eyes
They're like a sweet sunshine
Bridge:
They say the eyes are the windows
To the soul within
And when I look into yours
I see a love that never ends
I could get lost in them
For eternity
Those lovely brown eyes
They mean everything to me
Chorus:
Those lovely brown eyes
They're like a warm embrace
They pull me in closer
And I can't escape
I could get lost in them
For hours at a time
Those lovely brown eyes
They're like a sweet sunshine
Outro:
So when I see you again
I hope you know why
Those lovely brown eyes
They make me feel so alive.
I was walking down the street
When I saw a familiar face
Those lovely brown eyes
Stopped me in my place
I couldn't help but stare
Lost in their deep hue
Those lovely brown eyes
They had me feeling so brand new
Chorus:
Those lovely brown eyes
They're like a warm embrace
They pull me in closer
And I can't escape
I could get lost in them
For hours at a time
Those lovely brown eyes
They're like a sweet sunshine
Verse 2:
I've never felt this way before
But something about you
Those lovely brown eyes
They make me feel so true
I can see all your emotions
Reflecting in their shine
Those lovely brown eyes
They're like a window to your mind
Chorus:
Those lovely brown eyes
They're like a warm embrace
They pull me in closer
And I can't escape
I could get lost in them
For hours at a time
Those lovely brown eyes
They're like a sweet sunshine
Bridge:
They say the eyes are the windows
To the soul within
And when I look into yours
I see a love that never ends
I could get lost in them
For eternity
Those lovely brown eyes
They mean everything to me
Chorus:
Those lovely brown eyes
They're like a warm embrace
They pull me in closer
And I can't escape
I could get lost in them
For hours at a time
Those lovely brown eyes
They're like a sweet sunshine
Outro:
So when I see you again
I hope you know why
Those lovely brown eyes
They make me feel so alive.
