Eyes Of The Night

Lyrics: Barry Flast
Music: Barry Flast

Sung by Bob Weir with Kingfish in the mid-1980s and by Jenni Muldaur on 'Sundown On The Forest'

I've been wondering
How could I be taken in
By your hard time love
This time I have had enough

Chorus (note 1)
Eyes of the night
Eyes of the night
Shine in the shadow, out of the light
Eyes of the night
Eyes of the night
Watching you and your lover while you're holding tight

I made one mistake
Expecting you to give and take
One man's love won't do
What I can't give, you'll get from two

[chorus]

You didn't know it, but I've been following you
I had to see for myself if the rumours were true

You live two lives
One with me and one disguised
But that's all over now
I'm gonna break it up somehow

[chorus]

[chorus]
[chorus]
Watching you and your lover while you're holding tight
Watching you and your lover while you're holding tight
Notes
(1) the chorus on the version on 'Sundown On The Forest' is slightly different:
Eyes of the night
Hide from the light (in the shadows)
Eyes of the night
Watching you and your lover
