Oh, The Gentlemen Are Talking And The Midnight Moon Is On The Riverside

They're Drinking Up And Walking And It Is Time For Me To Slide

I Live In Another World Where Life And Death Are Memorized

Where The Earth Is Strung With Lover's Pearls And All I See Are Dark Eyes.



A Cock Is Crowing Far Away And Another Soldier's Deep In Prayer

Some Mother's Child Has Gone Astray, She Can't Find Him Anywhere

But I Hear Another Rum Beating For The Dead That Rise

Whom Nature's Beast Fear As They Come And All I See Are Dark Eyes.



They Tell Me To Be Discreet For All Intended Purposes

They Tell Me Revenge Is Sweet, I'm Sure It Is

But I Feel Nothing For Their Game, Where Beauty Goes Unrecognized

All I Feel Is Heat And Flame, And All I See Are Dark Eyes.



Oh, The French Girl, She's In Paradise And A Drunken Man Is At The Wheel

Hunger Pays A Heavy Prize To The Falling God Of Speed And Steel

Oh, Time Is Short And The Days Are Sweet And Passion Rules The Arrow That Flies

A Million Faces At My Feet But All I See Are Dark Eyes.
