John Conlee - In My Eyes lyrics

She’s just a woman

A hundred pounds of flesh and blood

Quick with a smile warm with a touch for me

She’s just a woman

And not the least or the most desired

But she sets one man’s heart on fire

And it’s me that she wants to please.

And in my eyes

God never made a more beautiful girl

In my eyes

There’s no one more lovely in all of the world

And she looks at me at times with such surprise

When she sees how special she is in my eyes.

She’s only human

And she cries sometimes when she looks in the mirror

And counts a new line that seemed to appear overnight

She’s only human

It’s not that she’s vain, she’s just afraid

That there’ll come a time when I’ll turn away at the sight

But I swear that’s not right.

And in my eyes

She just grows lovelier to me

And in my eyes

She’s only aging gracefully

And a thousand strands of gray won’t disguise

The woman she’ll always be in my eyes.

Sometimes she makes mistakes

But I'm aware of her faults

Her moods go up and down

She’s just a woman

Giving her love to only me

Without her help I would be less of a man

Than she thinks I am.

And in my eyes

Love never changes or pretends

In my eyes

Her mystery never ends

And everything I feel as years go by

Makes her love grow sweeter still in my eyes

In my eyes...
