Green Eyes (Live)

Every night we light the candle

That stands beside our bed

But sometimes the flame's too much to handle

That's what you said

That's what you said

And you should know

Because you've built a fire in me and you made it burn

You followed me watching every move

Matching every turn

Your green eyes, they don't miss a thing

They hold me like the sun going down

Warm me like a fire in the night, without a sound, mm-hm

You were waiting 'til I heard

Just as patient as that love light in your eyes

You never threw away a word, or ever talked in a disguise

I ought to know

You were a beacon to a sailor lost at sea

I saw it in your eyes when you looked at me, so openly

Your green eyes, they don't miss a thing

They hold me like the sun going down

Warm me like a fire in the night, without a sound

The first time I ever saw your laughter break loose inside and tumble out to me

My heart knew it had found what it was after, and it came so easily we should know

After all the years of the hard and lonely times

Now our days go by like best friends' story lines

Yours and mine

Your green eyes, they don't miss a thing

They hold me like the sun going down

Warm me like a fire in the night, without a sound

Without a sound
