My Lovin' Eyes — Carole King

MY LOVIN' EYES by Carole King & David Palmer

It's hard enough to hear you Express your sympathy But it's harder still to feel the things My eyes refuse to see

Oh, my lovin' eyes When you look upon them darlin' like you do You bring these tears into my lovin' eyes

I watch you take my self respect Accepting each excuse When I've never seen the reason For your moods or abuse

Oh, my lovin' eyes They hold you like the heaven holds the sun But look what you've done to my lovin' eyes

Like a man whose way is righteous His faith in life resigned I'm a child whose eyes are sightless And my faith in you is truly blind

It's sad to think of living As pain that we must feel But it's sadder still to think of love As something you conceal

Oh, my lovin' eyes When you look upon them darlin' like you do You bring these tears into my lovin' eyes
