Those Brown Eyes

Isn't it amazing what a bout of frustration can produce? See, this is why I should never, ever, under any circumstances fall for a boy like you. Why? Because you force me to write songs like this...

You'd think I'd have learned my lesson by now
But your brown eyes, they still get to me somehow
The way you walk around as if your life were a movie
You look at me with those brown eyes and I'm hypnotized
What was I doing letting you become my Kryptonite?
And letting you keep on fooling me?

I waited around so long thinking you'd change your mind
And now looking behind me, seeing how far you've strung me along
It's sad to see what I've become

Those brown eyes, you wield them like weapons
Dragging me down just to hide your deception
I'm starting to see a different picture now
Those brown eyes that used to swoon me
Just burn right through me and so easily bruise me
As if you never knew me
That old feeling's gone
And now, no matter what you do
Those brown eyes will always leave me blue

It's sad to hear the truth
Knowing you could never love anyone as much as you
I can't say I never tried to let you in
But you always left me on the outside
Too bad it took me so long to realize
That in the end, I couldn't even be your friend

I waited around so long thinking you'd change your mind
And now looking behind me, seeing how far you've strung me along
It's sad to see what I've become

Those brown eyes, you wield them like weapons
Dragging me down just to hide your deception
I'm starting to see a different picture now
Those brown eyes that used to swoon me
Just burn right through me and so easily bruise me
As if you never knew me
That old feeling's gone
And now, no matter what you do
Those brown eyes will always leave me blue

I apologized for everything you did
As you walked away wearing a silent grin
I waited around so long thinking you'd change your mind
And now looking behind me, seeing how far you've strung me along
It's sad to see what I've become

Those brown eyes, you wield them like weapons
Dragging me down just to hide your deception
I'm startThose brown eyes that used to swoon me
Just burn right through me and so easily bruise me
As if you never knew me
That old feeling's gone
And now, no matter what you do
Those brown eyes will always leave me blue

Those brown eyes, you wield them like weapons
Dragging me down just to hide your deception
I'm startThose brown eyes that used to swoon me
Just burn right through me and so easily bruise me
As if you never knew me
That old feeling's gone
And now, no matter what you do
Those brown eyes will always leave me blue
