Oh, the gentlemen are talking and the midnight moon is on the riversideThey're drinking up and walking and it is time for me to slideI live in another world where life and death are memorizedWhere the earth is strung with lover's pearls and all I see are dark eyes.A cock is crowing far away and another soldier's deep in prayerSome mother's child has gone astray, she can't find him anywhereBut I hear another rum beating for the dead that riseWhom nature's beast fear as they come and all I see are dark eyes.They tell me to be discreet for all intended purposesThey tell me revenge is sweet, I'm sure it isBut I feel nothing for their game, where beauty goes unrecognizedAll I feel is heat and flame, and all I see are dark eyes.Oh, the French girl, she's in paradise and a drunken man is at the wheelHunger pays a heavy prize to the falling god of speed and steelOh, time is short and the days are sweet and passion rules the arrow that fliesA million faces at my feet but all I see are dark eyes.
