One evening as the sun was low Brown eyes whispered I must go Not one moment could he wait He kissed my lips and left again It's those brown eyes I love so well Those brown eyes I long to see How I long for those brown eyes But strangers they have grown to be The last time we met on the street I bowed my head for I could not speak By his side was another girl Soon I thought she'd be his bride It's those brown eyes I love so well Those brown eyes I long to see How I long for those brown eyes But strangers they have grown to be (There goes two brown eyed boys) Just one year ago today They laid my own brown eyes away Up in heaven I longed to be A brown eyed angel waits for me It's those brown eyes I love so well Those brown eyes I long to see How I long for those brown eyes But strangers they have grown to be
