Violet Eyes - Levon Helm

Here I am all alone, waiting for your heart to change

And I’m hoping that love will light the way

That leads to where you hide

Behind your eyes of fire and ice

Violet eyes

Can’t you hear me takin' to you

Do my words only get in my way

Violet eyes

It’s just a feeling

Please don’t leave til it passes away

All along I’ve been trying like a bird against the wind

Still I’m flying, and I’m hoping once again

To see behind your curtain

Where I’m sure your secret lies

Violet eyes

Can’t you hear me takin' to you

Do my words only get in my way

Violet eyes

It’s just a feeling

Please don’t leave til it passes away

For as long as love lives inside me

There’s nothing I couldn’t give, wouldn’t give, couldn’t try

Violet eyes

Can’t you hear me takin' to you

Do my words only get in my way

Violet eyes

It’s just a feeling

Please don’t leave til it passes away

Please don’t leave til it passes away
