The eyes of Jenny - Sandy Coast (comp. Hans Vermeulen)
http://www.hansvermeulen.nl/
Intro: ( 2 x)
Jenny was only nine years old, the sister of someone I know
And she was pretty, oeh yes she was
She was a georgious little girl, happyest thing in the whole wide world
And she was pretty, ooh yes she was
And then I left her place to become a man, and I never thought I’d see her again
And I even failed remembering her name
But the other night at the studio fifty-four, she came suddenly walking through the front door
And she settled down in my mind again
Refrain:
I can live for another thousend years when I see the eyes of Jenny
Feels like I’m sailing to another place, another time
There ain’t no more worries, no more fears when I see the eyes of Jenny
It’s like they take me to where she knows I’ll find a little piece of mind
(repeat intro 2 x)
She told me she’s almost twenty-five, been through some struggle and some strive
And she is pretty, oeh like she was
It’s not the color, not the size, guess it’s the promise in those eyes
That makes her pretty, ooh like she was
And then I left the place and became a man, I don’t know if I’ll ever see her again
But I’ll always be remembering her name
‘Cause the other night at the studio fifty-four, she came suddenly walking through the front door
And she settled down in my mind again
Refrain ( 2 x) – 2nd time half solo / half lyrics
Coda = repeat intro 2x
