Ink Pot Eyes by Nick Garrie Lyrics
I watched a drunk come stumbling down the street
And he was calling out your name to all he chanced to meet
And I heard a lady try to immitate you
And another try to break you
But they all gave up and prayed to you
And may I introduce you to the stars
And fields where you can lose yourself in all the flowers
You know a man stands small against the sky
But if his dreams are turned to dust
Then he will surely die
Ink pot eyes
Ink pot eyes
Oh oh oh them deep blue skies
Ink pot eyes
Ink pot eyes
Oh oh oh them deep blue skies
And once I met a man who said he'd loved you
And tried to keep you
But you'd kept him and gone away
And now he says he's trying hard to find you
And he'll be kind to you
But he doesn't know you
Oh no he'll never know you
And may I introduce you to the stars
And fields where you can lose yourself in all the flowers
You know a man stands small against the sky
But if his dreams are turned to dust
Then he will surely die
Ink pot eyes
Ink pot eyes
Oh oh oh them deep blue skies
Ink pot eyes
Ink pot eyes
Oh oh oh them deep blue skies
And he was calling out your name to all he chanced to meet
And I heard a lady try to immitate you
And another try to break you
But they all gave up and prayed to you
And may I introduce you to the stars
And fields where you can lose yourself in all the flowers
You know a man stands small against the sky
But if his dreams are turned to dust
Then he will surely die
Ink pot eyes
Ink pot eyes
Oh oh oh them deep blue skies
Ink pot eyes
Ink pot eyes
Oh oh oh them deep blue skies
And once I met a man who said he'd loved you
And tried to keep you
But you'd kept him and gone away
And now he says he's trying hard to find you
And he'll be kind to you
But he doesn't know you
Oh no he'll never know you
And may I introduce you to the stars
And fields where you can lose yourself in all the flowers
You know a man stands small against the sky
But if his dreams are turned to dust
Then he will surely die
Ink pot eyes
Ink pot eyes
Oh oh oh them deep blue skies
Ink pot eyes
Ink pot eyes
Oh oh oh them deep blue skies
