Beautiful Black Eyes
Julian & Roman Wasserfuhr Quartet Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If you say my eyes are beautiful,
It's because they're looking at you.
And if you could only see yourself,
You'd feel the same way too.

You could say that I am a dreamer
Who's had a dream come true.
If you say my eyes are beautiful,
It's because they're looking at you.

If you're wondering why I'm smiling,
It's because I'm happy with you.
And the warm sensations touch my heart,
And fill me through and through.

I could hold you close forever,
And never let you go.
If you say my eyes are beautiful,
It's because I just love you so.

Now my heart is an open door;
Won't you come inside for more?
You can love so sweetly now;
Take my love, take me completely now.

Oh... if you say my eyes are beautiful,
It's because they're looking for you.
And my eyes adjust the window
For my feelings to come through.

And by far, you are more beautiful
Than anything I ever knew
If you say my eyes are beautiful,
If you say my eyes are beautiful,




If you say my eyes are beautiful,
It's because (it's because) they're looking at you.
