lyrics

Maybelline, your eyes are grey

It’s in your blood
It’s in your dna
The dish ran away
with the knife and the spoon
The cow counted sheep and
Jumped over the moon
Once in a while
Once in a dream
I’ll play my guitar and piano and sing
To innocent time and innocent days
Oh maybelline, your eyes are grey

Maybelline, I ain’t the one
I’ve gotta to go
I’ve gotta run
It breaks my heart to be letting you down
But they’re all gunning for me in this town
But I will be back for you someday
I Wait and I see and I hope and I pray
(Sit beside your window bay)
My love is not lightly given away
Maybelline your eyes are grey

Maybelline I’m telling you dear
It might be nothing that you want to hear
But love it lies bleeding onto the floor
And the lord he knows that 2 plus 2 equals four
(Scientific men do agree)
These men who read books of science do say
When flesh and the bone and the bullets do meet
The metal one always will win the day
Maybelline your eyes are grey
