Inside Your Eyes

Inside Your Eyes (inspired by Glenn Hughes’ “Written All Over Your Face”) You told your lies, your many lies. This woman cries and cries because at last she’s finally seen deep inside your eyes. I can’t believe I took so long to write the lyrics to this song, but I can see inside your eyes how much you’ve done me wrong. Chorus: You’ve done me wrong. You’ve done me wrong. How easily I see - inside your eyes, your wicked eyes! And now I am set free. Sweet memories are now erased. This woman that you had embraced has found you out and found her way. The truth of you she’s faced. And so this song to you I sing. It’s strange because I feel no sting. You walk away. Into the dirt the ring you gave me I now fling. Chorus: you’ve done me wrong You’ve done me wrong. How easily I see - inside your eyes, your wicked eyes!

Yep. Done wrong is no good. Where did you toss that ring...have you seen the price of Gold lately? Be hurt...but be practical. Woody, I think is good with melodies -- you need to run this one by him. Maybe next big hit.
