Crystal Blue Eyes

Verse 1

Baby girl, I love to look in your crystal blue eyes,
But why’s there swelling in the corners and your starting to cry?
Come over here, let me give you a kiss and a cuddle,
And you can tell me why your mind is all confused and in a muddle.
Now I know your man, he ain't treating you good,
He’s coming home late at night, he aint doing what he should,
Have more respect for yourself, pack your bags and leave,
I’m hear if you need any help so please,
Make the best decisions for the future of your life,
The ones that will result in you becoming a wife,
A loving husband and a good local school,
For your child’s education, he won't be a fool.
I could never forgive if he did you any harm,
So I hold out my hand and I touch your palm,
Pull you near, tell you that there’s nothing to fear 'coz I’m here,
Whisper these loving words in your ear.

Chorus (x2)

So get up, pack your bags and leave,
I’m hear baby girl, baby love, baby please,
I never wanna see you cry when you talk,
So open that door turn your back on him and walk.

Verse 2

Your crystal blue eyes are turning grey with stress,
Loneliness replacing any thought of happiness,
Curled up on the sofa, I drape a blanket over your shoulder,
Put on some soft melodies and bring you in a glass of water.
Is there anything else you could request or require?
I’ll put another log on the burning wooden fire, stoke it,
And watch the flames flicker and fly higher,
Your now a free sprit so fly where you desire.
When you stand, you hover a centimetre off the ground,
A brilliant smile to light up every face up in the crowd,
Understand, how happy and proud that you make me,
I’m glad to know you, you know lady,
I’ll help you through the hard times,
And if you want girl, I’ll celebrate the good times,
At any time in the morning or the night in the evening or the day,
You know your friendship I will never betray.

Chorus (x2)

Verse 3

Baby girl, come and stay with me,
There’s no rent to pay, so you won't pay a penny,
Honestly, and I don’t want any favours sexually,
Even thought you’re the most stunning girl my eyes ever did see,
Listen to me, you could be so much more,
You should have graduated from school gone to college studied law,
That was you future and you had it all figured out,
But then you man started messing about with your head,
And I still remember the exact words that you told me that he said,
And the moment that I heard them, my heart bled for you,
'Coz not a single syllable that he uttered was true,
Deep down, I know that you know this too.
So baby girl, let me turn your eyes from grey back to blue,
This is my help, it’s on a plate so girl please take it,
I'll help you to move forward, slowly at first, bit by bit,
You know in yourself you can do it, so girl just do it.
