Eyes of Velvet Brown
I met you on the bridge of sighs With tears in your brown velvet eyes I gave you hope when there was none But after all was said and done You’d fooled me with your lies I took you to my country home And soon my love for you had grown But when I had fulfilled your need You cut me down and watched me bleed Then left me all alone I found you in another town Just like before your luck was down You’d such a sorry tale to tell As once again the teardrops fell From eyes of velvet brown A woman’s tears are hard to bear I could not leave you standing there And as we walked into the night The full moon’s incandescent light Was shining in your hair Things were so perfect for a while With eyes of velvet brown you’d smile I thought a lesson you had learned This time my trust would not be spurned But that was not your style One night I held you close to me You said that nothing comes for free And this time you had gone too far By acting like the whore you are The one you’ll always be But now I’m rid of you for good As deep inside the pine tree wood With eyes of velvet brown you stare Unseeing in the cold night air Laid in a pool of blood
