My Lovin` Eyes Lyrics

MY LOVIN' EYES

by Carole King & David Palmer



It's hard enough to hear you

Express your sympathy

But it's harder still to feel the things

My eyes refuse to see



Oh, my lovin' eyes

When you look upon them darlin' like you do

You bring these tears into

   my lovin' eyes



I watch you take my self respect

Accepting each excuse

When I've never seen the reason

For your moods or abuse



Oh, my lovin' eyes

They hold you like the heaven holds the sun

But look what you've done to

   my lovin' eyes



Like a man whose way is righteous

His faith in life resigned

I'm a child whose eyes are sightless

And my faith in you is truly blind



It's sad to think of living

As pain that we must feel

But it's sadder still to think of love

As something you conceal



Oh, my lovin' eyes

When you look upon them darlin' like you do

You bring these tears into

   my lovin' eyes
