The girl with Deep Brown Eyes

Oh I once met a girl in a tiny town

Where the winter’s cold and long

She was just nineteen too young to wed

But her heart was pure and strong

‍

She was quick and pretty smart as a whip

Though her style was a little bit wild

I wanted to hold her oh so close

Everytime she smiled

‍

Oh she said you’re nice to be with

And you never tell me lies

And I loved that girl with all my heart

When I looked in her deep brown eyes

‍

I wished that all her loving charm

Could shine throughout the world

That her love would flow like the breezes blow

On a flag that’s fresh unfurled

‍

And I knew if I truly loved her so

Though I be a fool in love

That she’d grow strong and beautiful

And someday fly like a dove

‍

Her fingers long and slender smooth

Were the pride of her gorgeous hands

They begged the grace of a diamond ring

Not seen in prairie lands

‍

So I worked long days and I worked long nights

Of her virtues I did sing

Oh it’s true we see what we with to

But I bought that diamond ring

‍

Oh you never know what love can do

When it gets inside your soul

A carpet’s rolled and the stage is set

When lovers play their role

‍

For giving love and receiving love

Is the special gift of ours

And who knows where it’ll lead us to

If this love never sours

‍

Oh she said you’re nice to be with

And you never tell me lies

And I loved that girl with all my heart

When I looked in her deep brown eyes
