THE LOVE IN YOUR EYES   (1993)

George Jones  (3'53)



Written by:  Wayland Holyfield/Norro Wilson

Album:  High-Tech Redneck





I've seen the Rocky's

Bloom in the springtime

Reflections of scarlet and gold



And I've seen the moonlight

Dance on the ocean

Like a silver ballet that unfolds



I've seen the bright lights

Of old New York City

There's nothing in the world that shines

Like the love in your eyes

Like the love in your eyes

 

There ain't no diamond

That ever has sparkled

There ain't no star that shines

Like the love in your eyes

Like the love in your eyes



I've had some good friends

Turn out to be strangers

Funny how quickly they turn



And I've had some lovers

That helped me discover

How easy it is to get burned



In this world of glitter

And cosmetic people

There's one thing that's real in my mind

It's the love in your eyes

It's the love in your eyes



There ain't no diamond

That ever has sparkled

There ain't no star that shines

Like the love in your eyes

Oh, the love in your eyes



Sometimes I wander

And loose my direction

Sometimes I go over the line



But it's such a comfort

And it's such a blessing

To know that you're there all the time



And I feel I'm driftin'

On a sea of confusion

There's a beacon that always shines

It's the love in eyes

It's the love in eyes



There ain't no diamond

That ever has sparkled

There ain't no star that shines

Like the love in your eyes

Like the love in your eyes



It's the love in your eyes

The love in your eyes
