Quiet Eyes

Tony - my head's on a pillow
Clock strikes it's the count of four
Four hours of tossin' & turnin'
In a big brass bed
I've tried all the tricks in the book now
But I just can't sleep no more
Tony, what's happenin' to me
I'm tired & I'm cold
Somehow I'm imagining things
Movin' in the shadow
And my face is a painting crying
In the heat of the sun
Let the world outside - pay it's dues
I'll never know why - no matter how high
It's a sign that's been sealed & delivered
Tony, it's lookin' into your
Quiet eyes - silent tears
Silent as the night you deserted me
Quiet eyes - silent tears
Silence - & the night lasted seven years
Meanwhile I'm counting all the hours
& I've counted all the days
On the pages of a calendar
& I threw it all away
Tony I'm tryin' to make some sense baby
I'm always tryin' to get through to you
Maybe you're the last one to notice
How much I've been lovin' you
Let the world outside - pay it's dues
I'll never know why - no matter how high
It's a sign that's been sealed & delivered
Tony, it's lookin' into your
Quiet eyes - silent tears
Silent as the night you deserted me
Quiet eyes - silent tears
Silent as the night you deserted me
Quiet eyes - silent tears
Silence - & the night lasted seven years
Quiet eyes - silent tears
Silent as the night you deserted me
Quiet eyes - silent tears
Silence - & the night lasted seven years
Quiet eyes - silent tears
Silent as the night you deserted me
Quiet eyes - silent tears
Silence - & the night lasted seven years
