Oh, the gentlemen are talking and the midnight moon is on riverside They're drinking up and walking and it is time for me to slide I live in another world where life and death are memorized Where the earth is strung with lovers pearls and all I see are dark eyes A cock is crowing far away and another soldiers deep in prayer Some mothers child has gone astray she can't find him anywhere But I can hear another drum beating for the dead that rise Whom natures beast fears as they come and all I see are dark eyes They tell me to be discreet for all intended purposes They tell me revenge is sweet and from where they stand, I'm sure it is But I feel nothing for their game where beauty goes unrecognised All I feel is heat and flame and all I see are dark eyes Oh, the french girl, she's in paradise and a drunken man is at the wheel Hunger pays a heavy price to the falling gods of speed and steel Oh, time is short and the days are sweet and passion rules the arrow that flies A million faces at my feet but all I see are dark eyes
