Jimmy Dorsey - Green Eyes

Those green eyes with their soft light
Those eyes that promise sweet night
Brings to my soul a longing
A thirst for love divine
In dreams I seem to hold you
To find you and enfold you
Our lips meet and our hearts, too
With a thrill so sublime

Those cool and limpid green eyes
A pool wherein my love lies
So deep that in my searching
For happiness I fear
That they will ever haunt me
All through my life they'll taunt me
But will they ever want me?
Green eyes
Make my dreams come true

Soft light
And eyes that promise sweet night
Brings to my soul a longing
A thirst for love divine
In dreams I seem to hold you
To find you and enfold you
Our lips meet and our hearts, too
With a thrill so sublime

Those cool and limpid green eyes
A pool where in my love lies
So deep that in my searching
For happiness I fear
That they will ever haunt me
All through my life they'll taunt me
But will they ever want me?
Green eyes
I love you
