Song Lyrics

CAN'T CHANGE THESE BLACK EYES TO BLUE

Packed up my suitcase smoked my last cigarette
knowing your face is the one face I won't ever forget
Saved this old photo you slipped under the door
and it hurts me to know that you won't be there anymore

You can't change the old ways to new ones (aww no...)
You can't change these black eyes for blue ones
They say there's a town where everybody fools around
You can't change these black eyes to blue

Looked through my phone book to find some old friends
but all I could find me was bunch of loose ends
Seems that I've been there and back and then
Start the whole thing over making the same mistakes again

You can't change the old ways to new ones (aww no...)
You can't change these black eyes for blue ones
They say there's a town where everybody fools around
You can't change these black eyes to blue

I keep movin' on
Pack my bags again
Buyin' postcards of places that I've never been!

Now honey you're the reason I've been thinkin' so long
It took two thousand miles to see I've done you wrong
I was blinded by weakness while you were being strong
Now I'm left lonely, singing this sad & sorry song

You can't change the old ways to new ones
You can't change these black eyes for blue ones
They say there's a town where everybody fools around
You can't change these black eyes no...

You can't change the old ways to new ones (aww no...)
You can't change these black eyes for blue ones
They say there's a town where everybody fools around
No you can't change these black eyes no
No you can't change these black eyes
No you can't change these black eyes
They keep you blue...
