Flatfoot 56 - Shiny eyes lyrics

In times of hell, in times of sun, you journeyed with me, my precious one Far stretched the road I found you on. We walked together arm in arm Oh, shiny eyes, bright as the sun. You were my treasure, my dearest one Oh, shiny eyes, right where you stand. You were my own, I was your man Oh, shiny eyes, to my surprise, you're still my one Now lives are shaken, hearts are changed. You touched them all, you knew their names You helped the weak, the poor, the meek. And selfish treasure, you didn't seek Oh, shiny eyes, bright as the sun. You were my treasure, my dearest one Oh, shiny eyes, right where you stand. You were my own, I was your man Oh, shiny eyes, to my surprise, you're still my one And alas, my dear, I miss you. These thousand miles they burn through my soul. Hold on My dear, just one more day. Your haggard boy is comin' back home... is comin' back home And now in d**h, I bid farewell. A song to sing, your story I'll tell But I can't bear to see you, dear. Your shiny eyes no longer here Oh, shiny eyes, bright as the stars. Now lay in d**h's eternal arms Oh, shiny eyes, stare back through me. Now resting at your father's feet Oh, shiny eyes, to my surprise... oh, shiny eyes, you're still my one Oh, shiny eyes, to my surprise, you're still my one
