1. Remember that first day we met? I hadn’t hardly wakened yet When I walked in the church’s wooden door. Then I saw you beside a pew; I hardly knew what I should do So I stood firmly rooted to the floor, (Chorus) Because I saw the crosses in your eyes, Reflecting in their depths that seemed to look through me. And ever since that moment of surprise You’ve meant everything to me. 2. A year flew by on fleeting wings, In that same church exchanged our rings; Tho’ I can’t recall a single word I said, Or what I wore, or what I did. All I recall is two eyelids, And two eyes that I was looking at instead, (Chorus) Because I saw the crosses in your eyes, Reflecting in that bluish-green I love so much; And while I stared, and thought, and fantasized, I realized our lips had touched. 3. When two more years had flown on by, Remember when you knelt to cry In the graveyard just down the grassy hill? I led a brief and panicked search Until I found you by the church; There I stopped, and the whole world became still, (Chorus) Because I saw the crosses in your eyes; The smallest one a chiseled cross so cold and grey. I’d carved it for our daughter in the skies, Who we’d only had a day. 4. The time has really ticked away, That all seems just like yesterday; Now I lie on a bed and will not rise. But, Dearest, I’ll be doing fine So long as I a window find That will look to the churchyard from the skies, (Chorus) Because I’ll see the crosses in your eyes, Reflected in the tears you’ll shed beside my grave. And Sweetheart, just like I’ve done all our lives, I will whisper, “Please be brave.” 5. And when you meet me there someday, If there’s a cross where angels pray, I will reach for your hand and take you there; And as we kneel and fold our hands I hope our Father understands Why our eyes are wide open for the prayer— (Chorus) Because I’ll see the crosses in your eyes, Reflecting from the pretty girl I love so much. And all I hope is that I will realize When our silent lips have touched… Because I’ll see the crosses in your eyes, Reflected from the pretty girl I love so much.

The Crosses In Your Eyes

1. Remember that first day we met? I hadn’t hardly wakened yet When I walked in the church’s wooden door.
