"Those Brown Eyes" lyrics - THE TARRIERS

One evening when the sun was low
My brown eyes whispered: "I must go!"
Not one second would she wait
She kissed my cheek and left my gate!

Those brown eyes I loved so well
Those brown eyes I long to see
How I long for those brown eyes
Strangers they have grown to be!

One night I met her on the street
I tipped my hat but I could not speak
Another man was by her side
Soon I thought she'd be his bride!

Those brown eyes I loved so well
Those brown eyes I long to see
How I long for those brown eyes
Strangers they have grown to be!

'Twas just a year ago today
They laid my own brown eyes away
Six long years for me she cried
It was her brother by her side!

Those brown eyes I loved so well
Those brown eyes I long to see
How I long for those brown eyes
Strangers they have grown to be!
