“Your Eyes, the Moon and You,” my first love song.
Vocals: Aubrey Haddard
Rough Mix from the album, BETTER LATE… (release date - Spring 2021)
Your Eyes, the Moon and You
Last night I saw a perfect moon,
Floating huge above the trees,
Out-shining every star in the sky,
Stirring up the breeze.
Never met a soul with eyes
As soft and deep and kind as yours.
If I could paint the face of love,
I surely would paint yours.
No one’s ever looked at me
With eyes like yours,
Adoringly.
Taken by surprise,
And here’s the thing:
Your eyes, the moon and you
Give me reason to sing.
Never wrote a song about the moon,
Not until tonight.
Never thought that
I could get it right.
But no one’s ever looked at me
With eyes like yours,
Adoringly.
Taken by surprise,
And here’s the thing:
Your eyes, the moon and you
Give me reason to sing.
No one’s ever looked at me
With eyes like yours,
Adoringly.
Taken by surprise,
And here’s the thing:
Your eyes, the moon and you –
God, I love that view –
Your eyes, the moon and you
Give me reason to sing.
