Lyrics
When Will Our Eyes
When will our eyes ever meet
Across a crowded city street
Across a crowded city street
Once again
When will my spirits soar up high
Into the clear, blue sky
Into the clear, blue sky
When oh when
Chorus
We had a good thing for so long
Till I broke us apart
I betrayed the trust you had in me
When I won another's heart
Verse
When will my hands hold yours
Safe and so secure
Safe and so secure
In mine
When will my broken heart mend
And we'll be together again
We'll be together again
For all time
Chorus
We had a good thing for so long
Till I broke us apart
I betrayed the trust you had in me
When I won another's heart
We had a good thing for so long
Till I broke us apart
I betrayed the trust you had in me
When I won another's heart
Verse
When will our eyes ever meet
Across a crowded city street
Across a crowded city street
Once again
