Brown Eyes: Lyrics

As performed by Cisco Houston

Traditional

Appears on:
  Chorus:
  Those brown eyes I loved so well
  Those brown eyes that I long to see
  How I long for those brown eyes
  Strangers they have grown to be

Just one year ago today
When my brown eyes went way
Up in heaven, where a long to be
A brown-eyed angel waits for me

  Chorus:

Last night I passed her on the street
I bowed my head cuz I could not speak
'nother man was by her side
Soon I thought she'd be his bride

  Chorus: 

Of note:

Cisco is the backup, but does it well. A plaintive and yet up-beat song, well-performed.
