Golden Earring – Quiet Eyes lyrics

From the Albums: * The hole * Naked ii Tony - my head's on a pillow Clock strikes it's the count of four Four hours of tossin' & 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 & 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 & delivered Tony, it's lookin' into your Quiet eyes - silent tears Silent as the night you deserted me Quiet eyes - silent tears Silence - & the night lasted seven years Meanwhile I'm counting all the hours & I've counted all the days On the pages of a calendar & I threw it all away Tony I'm tryin' to make some sense baby I'm 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 & delivered Tony, it's lookin' into your Quiet eyes - silent tears Silent as the night you deserted me Quiet eyes - silent tears Silent as the night you deserted me Quiet eyes - silent tears Silence - & the night lasted seven years Quiet eyes - silent tears Silent as the night you deserted me Quiet eyes - silent tears Silence - & the night lasted seven years Quiet eyes - silent tears Silent as the night you deserted me Quiet eyes - silent tears Silence - & the night lasted seven years Explain Request ×
