Blue Ribbon Eyes Songtext
von Eleni Mandell

Blue Ribbon Eyes
I wish I could be
In North Carolina
Lying under the trees
You and me, baby
Birds flying by
Looking into your blue ribbon eyes

Driving to Hamlet
You said, matter of fact
That you′d always love her
And none after that
I swallowed big tears
Under pretty blue skies
Memories of love in your blue ribbon eyes

Why, oh, why
Did you tempt my heart with love?
You, only you, made me believe in heaven above


Now I know there's a hell
′Cause I'm burning inside
You smiled and you kissed me
Strong arms held me tight
We laughed in the meadow
You called me "first prize"
I'll never forget your blue ribbon eyes

Why, oh, why
Did you tempt my heart with love?
You, only you, made me believe in heaven above

Now I know there′s a hell
′Cause I'm burning inside
You smiled and you kissed me
Strong arms held me tight
We laughed in the meadow
You called me "first prize"
I′ll never forget your blue ribbon eyes
I'll never forget your blue ribbon eyes
