EYES I'M LOOKING THROUGH

Ain't a girl in this world, MmmmmHmmmm, can hold a candle to you.
If Brother Ray was here with me, even he would plainly see, all your goodness shining through.
If Michael Angelo and Beethoven, and Willy Shakespeare, pooled their talents and agreed,
To create their finest work of love, no doubt you'd be their masterpiece.

(CHORUS)
I know how you blush when I go on and on and on about you,
But I can only see perfection, when I gaze in your direction,
With the eyes I'm looking through,
With these eyes I'm looking through.

Remember Romeo, Marc Antony and let's not forget about Rhett.
If they'd met you, they woulda passed on Scarlet O, Cleo and Juliet.

(BRIDGE)
When you look in the mirror,
I wish you could see what I see.
To you, it's just a reflection,
But I see what lies beneath.


(CHORUS)
I know how you blush when I go on and on and on about you,
But I can only see perfection, when I gaze in your direction,
With the eyes I'm looking through,
But I can only see perfection, when I gaze in your direction,
With the eyes I'm looking through,
With these eyes I'm looking through.
