Smoke in My Eyes

She walked away  I got nothing to say 
Somebody asked me ‘Why do I cry?’
I tell you no lies. I got smoke in my eyes
So long ago I guess we fell in love
I’d give her the moon and  the stars above
I’m not good with goodbyes. I got smoke in my eyes
 
I got smoke in my eyes  I got smoke in my eyes
I got smoke in my eyes  I got smoke in my eyes

Maybe someday I’ll get back on my feet
But until then I’ll keep smiling so sweet
I’ll hide my disguise.  I got smoke in my eyes
I sit by  this  fire, crackling wood
I’ll carry  on. Please tell me  I should
There’s clouds in the skies I got smoke in my eyes
I got smoke in my eyes  I got smoke in my eyes
I got smoke in my eyes  I got smoke in my eyes

 Track # 18 from the album “Remember”

Sky's The Limit

YOU’VE BEEN WAITING FOR ME TO COME IN
BUT YOU DON’T KNOW OH WHERE I’VE BEEN
YOU THINK YOU KNOW ME BUT WHAT DO YOU KNOW
JUST SITTING AT THE DINER NO PLACE TO GO
THE SKY’S THE LIMIT WHEN YOUR SEARCHING FOR LOVE             
THE SKY’S THE LIMIT WHEN YOUR SEARCHING FOR LOVE

YOU EAT YOUR LUNCH WELL  IT’S NOT THE SAME
I’M  NOW THERE NOW WELL WHO’S TO BLAME 
A PICKLE WITH A SANDWICH SERVED WITH FRIES
THERE AIN’T NO COMPASSION IN THOSE STONY EYES
THE SKY’S THE LIMIT WHEN YOUR SEARCHING FOR LOVE             
THE SKY’S THE LIMIT WHEN YOUR SEARCHING FOR LOVE

“HAVE FAITH IN YOUR MAN” THE WOMAN ON THE T.V. SINGS
YOU’RE LOOKING AT YOUR SANDWICH +YOUR WEDDING RINGS
COULD THIS BE THE TURNING POINT IN YOUR MIXED UP LIFE?
YOU PUT SOME BUTTER ON THAT KITCHEN KNIFE
THE SKY’S THE LIMIT WHEN YOUR SEARCHING FOR LOVE             
THE SKY’S THE LIMIT WHEN YOUR SEARCHING FOR LOVE

YOU GOT TO KNOW THAT YOU’RE NOT LIKE ME
WITH YOUR FACE IN THE PAPER WELL THAT’S ALL YOU SEE
IT’S GOING TO TAKE SOME TIME FOR YOUR TRANSFORMATION
JUST SITTIN AT THE DINER AT THE RAILWAY STATION             
THE SKY’S THE LIMIT WHEN YOUR SEARCHING FOR LOVE             
THE SKY’S THE LIMIT WHEN YOUR SEARCHING FOR LOVE
