Lyrics

When Will Our Eyes

When will our eyes ever meet
Across a crowded city street
Across a crowded city street
Once again

When will my spirits soar up high
Into the clear, blue sky
Into the clear, blue sky
When oh when


Chorus

We had a good thing for so long
Till I broke us apart
I betrayed the trust you had in me
When I won another's heart

Verse

When will my hands hold yours
Safe and so secure
Safe and so secure
In mine

When will my broken heart mend
And we'll be together again
We'll be together again
For all time

Chorus

We had a good thing for so long
Till I broke us apart
I betrayed the trust you had in me
When I won another's heart

We had a good thing for so long
Till I broke us apart
I betrayed the trust you had in me
When I won another's heart

Verse

When will our eyes ever meet
Across a crowded city street
Across a crowded city street
Once again
