Steel Eyes

I talk to the lady with the steel grey eyes

While the sun is going down

And we talk of the things that we wish to know

But she's really not around

And the sunset on the mountain is the same colour

As her cascade chestnut hair

And now loving is in living

For forgetting your past

So now why the distant stare

Could it be there is someone who remains in her heart

And she cares

And the ice of her kisses lingers on and on

And the image of her body live

Yet you walked on black sand by the sea's turmoil

In the dark of a velvet night

Then you sat down and gave your hands to be kissed and loved

Could not you hear a gentle sigh

And by the stars part control of your wandering life

Do you believe in not telling lies

But it was good that you were warm on your way back home

Short love, goodbye
