"Her Eyes Dart Round" lyrics

"Her Eyes Dart Round"
(originally by The Felice Brothers)

Ooh my love is light as a dove
Skin is fair and dark is her hair
And her eyes dart around and fall on the ground
And her lips move along to an old country song

Oh down south you'll find among the high pines
An old liquor store where we danced on the floor
Oh the light on the wall brightens the hall
In the room in the back is quiet and black

What keeps me alive is the green in your eyes
Sweet distant drone of your voice on the phone
Can I hear in death your voice and your breath
Can I hear them sounds in life underground

Likely she walks among the high stalks
Craning her neck, she steps 'round the deck
Can I bow in the sand to your lily-white hand
Can my head gently rest on your lily-white breast

Ooh my love is light as a dove
Her skin is fair and dark is her hair
And her eyes dart around and fall on the ground
And her lips move along to an old country song
