Violet Eyes Songtext
von Sandra McCracken

Violet eyes, white cloud skies
She was plainly ordinary
No silver wings, no big dreams
She never bothered anybody

No gamble, no risk
No clenching her fist
When you close your eyes
It won′t help you forget

One day more or less, oh-oh
One more longing envy for greener grass
Anything to please
Fill this hole in me

Wounded soul, no home to go to
It's really nothing so unusual
She learns to deal, and maybe not to feel
And leaves the light on while she′s sleeping


No gamble, no risk
No clenching her fist
When you close your eyes
It won't help you forget

One day more or less, oh-oh
One more longing envy for greener grass
Anything to please, yeah

Is there more than breathing?
And motionless hoping for

Kindred ties, orphan lies
Easier to run than to reconcile
Mountain highs, cursed nights
When you run, you drag it all behind

No gamble, no risk
No clenching your fist
When you close your eyes
It won't help you forget

One day more or less, oh-oh
One more longing envy for greener grass
Anything to please
Anything to please
Anything to please
Fill this hole in me
