Black & White Eyes Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She's been dancing
In a topless bar
And she's doing well
So far
She is working to earn
Her own dollar
'Cause the fortune teller
Didn't talk about stars
[Chorus]
She has black and white eyes
A mind full of vintage skies
She has black and white eyes
A mouth full of cheering lies
[Verse 3]
She needs something
To keep her feet on the ground
'Cause when she's flying around
She never wants to come back down
She lost her smile
In ninety-five
When she woke up on the backseat
Of a studded car
[Chorus]
She has black and white eyes
A mind full of vintage skies
She has black and white eyes
A mouth full of cheering lies
[Verse 5]
Think I lost her
At twenty-four
When she started to lock herself up
Behind the bathroom door
[Bridge]
All along the white line
She can travel back in time
All along the white line
She can travel back in time
All along the white line
[Outro]
I'm on my way
Looking up today
Never mind then, could be worse seeing
Tuesday fly away
