Lovers’ Eyes Lyrics

Cause there's no drink
Or drug I've tried
To rid the curse of
These lovers' eyes

And I feel numb
Beneath your tongue
Your strength just makes me feel less strong


[Hook]
But do not ask the price I paid
I must live with my quiet rage
Tame the ghosts in my head
That run wild and wish me dead
Should you shake my ash to the wind
Lord forget all of my sins
Oh let me die where I lie
'Neath the curse of my lovers' eyes

And I'll walk slow, I'll walk slow
Take my hand, help me on my way


And I'll walk slow, I'll walk slow
Take my hand, help me on my way

And I'll walk slow, I'll walk slow
Take my hand, help me on my way
And I'll walk slow, I'll walk slow
Take my hand, help me on my way

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
