Thought of you as my mountain top
Thought of you as my peak
Thought of you as everything
I had but couldn't keep
I had but couldn't keep
Linger on your pale blue eyes
Linger on your pale blue eyes


If I could make the world as pure
And strange as what I see
I'd put you in my mirror
I'd put in front of me
I'd put in front of me
Linger on your pale blue eyes
Linger on your pale blue eyes

Skip the life completly
Stuff it in a cup
She said that money is like us in time
It lies but it can't stand up
Down for you is up
Linger on your pale blue eyes
Linger on your pale blue eyes


It was good what we did yesterday
And I'd do it once again
The fact that you are married
Only proves you're my best friend
But it's truely truely a sin
Linger on your pale blue eyes
Linger on your pale blue eyes
