I love your eyes, my dear They're splendid, sparkling fire When suddenly, you raise them so To cast a swift, embracing glance Like lightning flashing in the sky But there's a charm that's greater still When my love's eyes are low When all is fire, my passion's killed And through the downcast lashes I see the dull flame of desire And through the downcast lashes I see the dull flame of desire Oh, I love your eyes, my dear They're splendid, sparkling fire When suddenly, you raise them so To cast a swift, embracing glance Like lightning flashing in the sky But there's a charm that's greater still When my love's eyes are low When all is fire, my passion's killed And through the downcast lashes I see the dull flame of desire And through the downcast lashes I see the dull flame of desire And through the downcast lashes I see the dull flame of desire *
