It's My Life
Starlite Singers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't know what's come over you
You've found someone new and
Don't it make my brown eyes blue
I'll be fine when you're gone
I'll just cry all night long
Say it isn't true and
Tell me no secrets, tell me some lies
Give me no reasons, give me alibies
Tell me you love me and don't let me cry
Say anything but don't say goodbye
I didn't mean to treat you bad
Didn't know just what I had
But honey now I do
And don't it make my brown eyes
Don't it make my brown eyes
Don't it make my brown eyes blue
The Starlite Singers’ song My Father’s Eyes tells the story of a woman who has been hurt by her lover's decision to leave her for someone else. The lyrics of the song express the pain and sadness that the woman is feeling as she tries to come to terms with the fact that her lover has found somebody new. The opening lines of the song suggest that the woman is feeling very blue and doesn't understand why her lover has left her for another person. She is struggling to find a reason for this turn of events and is feeling very low.
The woman then admits that she will cry all night long, suggesting she's unable to move on or find happiness without her lover. She begs her lover to tell her that it isn't true and that they are still together, hinting that she isn't ready to let him go. The woman is looking for reassurance, hoping that her lover will stay with her rather than leave her alone. The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "Don't it make my brown eyes blue," which is a metaphor for the pain and sadness that she feels due to her lover's departure.
In summary, the Starlite Singers' song My Father's Eyes is about the emotions that come with losing someone you love to another person. The lyrics show the pain of a woman who is struggling to come to terms with her lover's decision to leave her for someone else. She is looking for comfort and wants her lover to stay with her but is ultimately left heartbroken.

It's My Life (Full Lyrics)
Bon Jovi
This ain't a song for the broken-hearted
No silent prayer for the faith-departed
I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd
You're gonna hear my voice
When I shout it out loud
It's my life
It's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
It's my life
This is for the ones who stood their ground
It's for Tommy and Gina who never backed down
Tomorrow's getting harder, make no mistake
Luck ain't enough
You've got to make your own breaks
It's my life
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
It's my life
You better stand tall when they're calling you out
Don't bend, don't break, baby, don't back down
It's my life
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)

Bon jovi should be proud. They had one job and they nailed it. I hope they do more songs. Being a drummer myself I'm so happy more and more female's are picking it up. Watching this really made me want to be there..
