These Eyes Lyrics

[Hook]

[Verse 1]
These eyes
Cry every night
For you
These arms
Long to hold you
Again


[Bridge]
The hurtin's on me, yeah
And I will never be free
No, my baby, no no
You gave the promise to me, yeah
And you broke it
And you broke it, oh no


[Hook]

[Verse 2]
These eyes
Watched you bring my world
To an end
This heart
Could not accept
And pretend
[Chorus]
These eyes
Are cryin'

These eyes have seen a lot of loves
But they never gonna see another one
Like I had with you

[Outro]
Baby, baby, baby, baby
Don't ya know these eyes are cryin' every night
I need you back in my heart

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 [?]
