blue eyes

I was just about to leave when you walked in
I took my coat back off again, told all my friends
I was staying just a little while longer
But they all knew the reason why, and I won't lie

I couldn't help myself, it's true
When I walked right up to you

And I said, "Hey there, blue eyes
I don't even know your name
Would you care to dance? Take my hand
And let the night lights spin away
Saw you look my way from there
Across the room, you caught my eye and I caught yours
I'm seeing stars out of the blue"

Ooh, ooh
Ooh

Oh, you were only six or seven goodnight's in
When I realized that you belong here in my arms
So I paid your favorite singer to drive down here from Nashville
To be there at our table and sing your song

I was terrified, it's true
When I knelt there next to you

And I said, "Hey there, blue eyes
Do you wanna take my name?
Would you care to dance? Take my hand
And let the night lights spin away
Saw you look my way from there across the room
You caught my eye and I caught yours
I'm seeing stars out of the blue

Ooh, ooh
Ooh
Ooh, ooh (hm)
Ooh

It was just about 6:30 in the morning
When the nurse said it was time, "She's doing fine"
I was sweating bullets standing by the bed
A million thoughts were racing through my mind, what would you be like?

Let your mother hold you first
When I finally got my turn

And I said, "Hey there, blue eyes
You don't even know your name
My little man, take my hand
And let the night lights fade away
I saw you look my way from there across the room
You caught my eye and I caught yours
I'm seeing stars out of the blue"

Ooh, ooh
Ooh (out of the blue)
Ooh, ooh
Ooh (out of the blue)
