Paul Gordon - The Colour Of Your Eyes lyrics

He reminds me of you in much younger days
Softly eccentric and set in his ways

He reminds me of you it's funny and yet
How can he really remind me
Of someone that I've never met?

And PS i wish you and I could be friends
Wouldn't that be a lovely surprise?
'Cause PS how sweet to be writing to you
If I knew the colour of your eyes

We went for tea at an outdoor café
Oh, and his eyes are both blue by the way

We talked and we talked
You should have been there
And then he went on
About Melville and Whitman
I'm floating on air!

And PS i blushed when he offered his arm
And we walked under fairweather skies
And oh
How I wish that you'd been with us too
And I knew the colour of your eyes

He made it seem like I'd known him
From long ago laughed at my jokes
Though they scarcely seemed apropos
I'm feeling more like a girl
And less like a child

Oh, what a man i'll never forget
But really the only man I've ever met
Then he took the train and I heaved a sigh
And Julia got angry
'Cause he left without even saying goodbye

And PS it's late and I can't get to sleep
So I'll lay out my soul on the line
What do I care if there's blue in his eyes?
If someday you're looking into mine?

One day, you'll be looking into mine
