Two Blue Eyes

[Verse 1]

Cold breaks the mirror there

Hope beige as paper ware

Rope and my father's scroll

I'm open as a bell before the toll

[Chorus]

Days upon the lonely pyre of our youth

I fell in love with two blue eyes, and that's you

She's awake, she cries, we carry on

Eyes are closed to see the sun is gone

And then the day is done

[Verse 2]

Child cries for mother's hand, she runs

Smoke in the mirror and, these guns

Hold me so near again

I'm broken as a bell after the war

[Chorus]

Days upon the lonely pyre of our youth

I fell in love with two blue eyes, and that's you

She's awake, she cries we carry on

Eyes are closed to see the sun is gone

And then our day is done

[Bridge]

Don't be long, no, don't be a drifter, no, I let the basin fill

Don't be long, no, don't be that leftover minute

Who we are? Who we are?

[Chorus]

Days upon the lonely pyre of our youth

I fell in love with two blue eyes, and that's you

She's awake, she cries we carry on

Eyes are closed to see the sun is gone

And then our day is done
