lyrics

Green eyes
How could I have known?

Like trees in the sunlight
But your innocent guise was just for show

And I never wanted to be anything but what you needed
I was blind to the problems that were breeding
And I wasn’t thinking right when I reached out for your hand
When you showed what you were I threw myself to the sea and I swam

Waves of grey
Like steel so dark as they break
The water never yields
I am carried by earth-less fields

And I never wanted to be anything but what you needed
I was blind to the problems that were breeding
And I wasn’t thinking right when I reached out for your hand
When you showed what you were I threw myself to the sea and I swam

Now I can’t be sure of the words that you spoke so kindly before
When such tenderness and your lips could lie
And I’ll never know if the song that you sang was the story we wrote
Did you mean those words for me?

And I never wanted to be anything but what you needed
I was blind
I was blind
I was blind

Fran Minney England, UK

Though deeply personal, her songs have an ability to be felt and understood by almost everyone. ... more
