Michael Bublé’s introduction to the music of the swing era came to him through his grandfather, who filled his grandson’s ears with the sounds of The Mills Brothers, Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, and others. As Bublé eagerly absorbed the recordings, he began to realize that he wanted to be a singer and that this style of music, virtually foreign to his own generation, was what he wanted to perform.
With his grandfather’s assistance, Bublé soon learned a whole catalog of tunes and gained experience and exposure by singing as a guest with several local bands. While still in his teen years, he won the Canadian Youth Talent Search, released several independent albums, and performed in a musical review titled Swing that traveled across the U.S. It wasn’t long before Bublé was introduced to Grammy-winning producer David Foster during a famous Canadian wedding of Brian Mulroney’s daughter Caroline Mulroney. He later signed his first major recording contract with Reprise Records after that encounter.
The two Canadians began work on a debut album that would incorporate Bublé’s aptitude for pop standards into songs that spanned several decades. His self-titled debut disc was released in early 2003, and featured jazzy takes on old standards like “Fever” and “The Way You Look Tonight” as well as newer classics like “Moondance” and “How Can You Mend A Broken Heart”.
He finished off 2003 with an EP of holiday material, Let It Snow, and began 2004 with the live CD/DVD set Come Fly With Me. In 2005, It’s Time was a number one hit in Canada, Japan, Italy, and Australia, and made the top ten of both the UK and US. Later that year he released the live album Caught in the Act. More recently, Michael received a 2010 Grammy Award for 'Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album' for 'Michael Bublé Meets Madison Square Garden.
I Only Have Eyes For You
Michael Bublé Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
I don't care if it's cloudy or bright
'Cause I only have eyes for you, dear
Now the moon may be high
But I can't see a thing in the sky
'Cause I only have eyes for you
I don't know if we're in a garden
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
And I only have eyes for you
How can I live a day without you?
I need your love to see me through
You're not here by my side
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
And I only have eyes
I only have eyes
Only have eyes for you
I only have eyes for you
Are the stars out tonight?
Could be cloudy or bright there
Eyes so blue, kisses true
I never knew
Michael Bublé's "I Only Have Eyes For You" is a romantic love song that speaks of a deep affection for someone so special that the person becomes the only thing that matters. The song starts with the singer wondering if the stars are out tonight, but he doesn't really care because the person he loves is right there, and that's all that matters. He goes ahead to say that even if the moon is high and bright, he can't see anything in the sky because he only has eyes for the one he loves.
The next verse suggests that he is so smitten that he doesn't even notice the surroundings anymore. He can be in a garden or a crowded avenue, and it doesn't matter as long as the person he loves is there. Even if millions of people walk by, they all disappear from view because he only has eyes for that special someone. The chorus repeats the theme, emphasizing that he only has eyes for the person he loves and needs their love to see him through.
The lyrics of this song are simple, but they express deep love and devotion. The singer is willing to let go of everything else just to be with the one he loves. This song speaks to anyone who has ever been in love and felt the all-consuming power that it can have.

Are the stars out tonight?
I don't care if it's cloudy or bright
Cause I only have eyes for you, dear
Now the moon may be high
But I can't see a thing in the sky
Cause I only have eyes for you
I don't know if we're in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
And I only have eyes for you
How can I live a day without you?
I need your love to see me through
You're not here by my side
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all dissappear from view
And I only have eyes
I only have eyes
Only have eyes for you
I only have eyes for you
Are the stars out tonight?
Could be cloudy or bright there
Eyes so blue, kisses true
I never knew...
