Mixed Emotion Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You gotta come back
Brown eye
Gotta come back
Come hear me cry.
Gotta come back
Brown eye
Why do you make me cry?
Hey
I can see it in your eyes
I can see it in your smile: you want love
Babe
You need it so badly and I need it
Too.
Hey
I can feel it from your heart
And I knew it from the start:
You want love
Babe
Let's do it just even for a night.
And when you kiss me I can feel the heaven on earth
And when you touch me I can dream.
Maria
Maria
Maria

Oh
I feel so good when you are by my side.
Hey
I can see it in your eyes
. . .
You gotta come back
Brown eye
Gotta come back
Come hear me cry.
Gotta come back
Brown eye
Why do you make me cry?
And when you hold me I can fly above to the sky
And whisper words of love so sweet.
Maria

Maria
Let me be with you until eternity.
Hey
I can see it in your eyes
. . .
Hey




I can see it in your eyes
