Emerald Eyes Lyrics

	


You don't know what she means to me
She's a heart that beats close to me
And gettin' back to the way I feel
Her honest word is my only real thing
When she comes to me then I feel fine
And I'm not afraid but so gratified
Emerald eyes is a mystery
Starin' through to the heart of me

Find, emerald eyes in the night
Gleamin' shiny and bright
As if covered with silver
She's still a mystery to me
The way she sails away slow
Makes your day to day life easy

Emerald eyes is a mystery
She's my place of serenity
And gettin' back to the way I feel
Her honest word is my only real thing
Only an honest word, maybe a sky report
Could be a weather bird it was so close to me
Emerald eyes is a mystery
She's my place of serenity

It's a song about a man falling in love with a beguiling, enigmatic woman, and rather than feeling put off by her strength and mystery, he takes solace in these traits and sees her as a perfect lover.

@adaminoacids32 I just realized the song title could be referring to a poetry book by Diane Wakoski, called “Emerald Ice”. Maybe they’re just singing about her haha

I think the song could be about a cat. "Emerald Eyes in the night, gleaming shiny and bright.. as if covered with silver." Sure sounds like how a cat's eyes look in the night. "She's a heart that beats close to me. Her honest word is my only real thing." Call me crazy but I think these lyrics perfectly describe a CAT. I know this is how I feel about my cat. >^..^<
