lyrics

Your Eyes Are No Place for a Running Heart

Words and Music by Dempsey S. Watson (ASCAP) and Richard Melvin Brown (SOCAN)

Verse 1

There are towns to know, its time I should go.
Don’t recall packing ever being this slow.
Let our love grow far too late.
My tears will always remember this date.
Leaving will have to wait until dark.
Your eyes are no place for a running heart.

Chorus

Your eyes are no place for a running heart.
Sound my soul before the lying can start.
They hold me and fold me until I feel light.
No man could embrace you and think of one night.

Verse 2

Wandered my life never waking to search.
Then find the most precious thing on earth.
If I’d guessed fate would throw such a twist,
Would’ve raised myself different to honor your kiss.
These boots urge me to bolt for the door.
Avoid saying farewell as I stare at the floor.

Repeat Chorus

Verse 3

Do I belong in this new world that I see?
Love you so much, I wish I were me.
What if I stay and it all goes wrong?
Hurting you would be my last song.
No way is clear as I squint through this haze.
Never quite mastered meeting your gaze.

Repeat Chorus

(c) 2006 Dempsey S. Watson and Richard Melvin Brown
