Oh, the gentlemen are talking And the midnight moon is on the riverside They're drinking up and walking And it is time for me to slide I live in another world where life and death are memorized Where the earth is strung with lovers' pearls And all I see are dark eyes A cock is crowing far away And another soldier's deep in prayer Some mother's child has gone astray She can't find him anywhere But I can hear another drum Beating for the dead that rise Nature's beast fears as they come And all I see are dark eyes They tell me to be discreet for all intended purposes They tell me revenge is sweet And from where they stand, I'm sure it is But I feel nothing for their game Where beauty goes unrecognized All I feel is heat and flame And all I see are dark eyes Oh, the French girl, she's in paradise SongtexteAnd a drunken man is at the wheel Hunger pays a heavy price To the falling gods of speed and steel Oh, time is short and the days are sweet And passion rules the arrow that flies A million faces at my feet And all I see are dark eyes Aus Songtexte Mania
