Prettiest Eyes Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Line one is the time
That you, you first stayed over at mine
And we drank our first bottle of wine
And we cried

Two, we're away
And we both, we both had nowhere to stay
Well, the bus-shelter's always okay
When you're young

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Now you're older and I look at your face
Every wrinkle is so easy to place
And I only write them down just in case
That you die

[Chorus 1]
Let's take a look at these crow's feet, just look
Sitting on the prettiest eyes
Sixty 25th of Decembers
Fifty-nine 4th of Julys

Not through the age or the failure, children
Not through the hate or despise
Take a good look at these crow's feet
Sitting on the prettiest eyes

[Verse 2]
Line three, I forget
But I think, I think it was our first ever bet
And the horse we backed was short of a leg
But never mind...

Line four, in a park
And the things, the things that people do in the dark
I could hear the faintest beat of your heart
Then we did...

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Now you're older and I look at your face
Every wrinkle is so easy to place
And I only write them down just in case
You should die

[Chorus 2]
Let's take a look at these crow's feet, just look
Sitting on the prettiest eyes
Sixty 25th of Decembers
Fifty-nine 4th of Julys

You can't have too many good times, children
You can't have too many lines
Take a good look at these crow's feet
Sitting on the prettiest eyes

[Outro]
Well, my eyes look like a map of the town
And my teeth are either yellow or they're brown
But you'll never hear the crack of a frown when you are here
You'll never hear the crack

Of a frown
Of a frown
Of a frown
Of a frown...
