Bruce Springsteen - Gloria's Eyes lyrics

I was your big man
I was your Prince Charming
King on a white horse, hey now
Look how far I've fallen
I tried to trick you, yeah, but baby
You got wise
You cut me, cut me right down to size
Now I'm just a fool in Gloria's eyes

Swore I'd get you back, I was so sure
I'd get you back like I
Done so many times before
A little sweet talk to cover
Over all of the lies
You came runnin' back, but to my surprise
There was somethin' gone in Gloria's eyes

Well in the dark when it was just me and you
I asked the question that I
Knew the answer to
Is that a smile, my little dolly on the shelf
Tell me is that a smile
Or is it somethin' else?

I work hard to prove my love is true
I work hard and I bring it on home to you
At night, I pray as silently as you lie
Some day my love again will rise
Like a shining torch in Gloria's eyes
Like a shining torch in Gloria's eyes
Like a shining torch in Gloria's eyes

I was your big man
I was your Prince Charming
King on a white horse
Now look how far I've fallen
