Eyes of Amber by Buffy Sainte-Marie
Performed by
Buffy Sainte-MarieAbout
“The lilting but lulling accompaniment and the intense but faintly hypnotic vocal performance have the qualities of incantation rather than song. But not altogether incantation, for this song of love for a spirit-deity is simultaneously a love-song.”

Eyes of Amber Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Eyes of blue or eyes of green, eyes of amber
Eyes of starlight have come again as they have come before
Heart of fire light, heart of the flowers of the jungle
Heart of snow, you come again and you are midnight wind
[Bridge]
With hands of moonbeams and clouds
And call me come to you
And though I never know you, wistful lover until you're gone
You're here to teach me how to love
A dream of loving love
[Verse 2]
Breath of jasmine, breast of silk, breast of music
The desert sands that take my tears are of your magic too
Eyes of blue or eyes of onyx, eyes of amber
Eyes of starlight, you come again as you have come before
