Golden Earring - Quiet Eyes lyrics
Tony, my head's on a pillow, clock strikes it's the count of four
Four hours of tossin' and turnin', in a big brass bed
I've tried all the tricks in the book now, but I just can't sleep no more
Tony, what's happenin' to me, I'm tired and I'm cold
Somehow I'm imagining things, movin' in the shadow
And my face is a painting crying, in the heat of the sun
Let the world outside pay it's dues
I'll never know why, no matter how high
It's a sign that's been sealed and delivered, tony, it's lookin' into your
Quiet eyes, silent tears, silent as the night you deserted me
Quiet eyes, silent tears, silence and the night lasted seven years
Meanwhile I'm counting ll the hours, and I've counted all the days
On the pages of a calendar, and I threw it all away
Tony, I'm tryin' to make some sense baby
Always tryin' to get through to you, maybe you're the last one to notice
How much I've been lovin' you
Let the world outside pay it's dues
I'll never know why, no matter how high
It's a sign that's been sealed and delivered, tony, it's lookin' into your
Quiet eyes, silent tears, silent as the night you deserted me
Quiet eyes, silent tears, silence and the night lasted seven years
Quiet eyes, silent tears, silent as the night you deserted me
Quiet eyes, silent tears, silence and the night lasted seven years
Quiet eyes, silent tears, silent as the night you deserted me
Quiet eyes, silent tears, silence and the night lasted seven years
