Stars In Your Eyes
by Jerome Olds

Album: Eyes of A Common Man

It seems this old world's
Been tugging at me again
Sometimes it's hard to let go
You have to remind me
We're starting to be best friends
You're so young but still you know

And lately when I look at you
I'm starting to realize
That there's stars in your eyes
And if I don't see them everyday
I start to cry

Your momma's in the kitchen
Fixing something for me and you
What would we do without her love?
The babies are getting quiet
They've found something to do
That leaves the dog and me and you

And lately when I look at you
I'm starting to realize
That there's stars in your eyes
If I don't see them everyday
I start to cry

So, let's catch a cloud and ride
We'll ride
Just like two cowboys in the saddle
We'll be riding side by side
We'll be punching pokes and cattle
We're a regular rawhide
All we need's uncloudy days
And the stars in your eyes
To push away the rain
On this windowpane
To sing the song of joy in life's refrain
I think the day you go away
I'll start to cry
