Dark Eyes Lyrics - Empire Burlesque - Bob Dylan

Oh, the gentlemen are talking and the midnight moon is on the riverside, 

They're drinking up and walking and it is time for me to slide. 

I live in another world where life and death are memorized, 

Where the earth is strung with lovers' pearls and all I see are dark eyes. 

 

A cock is crowing far away and another soldier's deep in prayer, 

Some mother's child has gone astray, she can't find him anywhere. 

But I can hear another drum beating for the dead that rise, 

Whom nature's beast fears as they come and all I see are dark eyes. 

 

They tell me to be discreet for all intended purposes, 

They tell me revenge is sweet and from where they stand, I'm sure it is. 

But I feel nothing for their game where beauty goes unrecognized, 

All 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 wheel, 

Hunger pays a heavy price to the falling gods of speed and steel. 

Oh, time is short and the days are sweet and passion rules the arrow that flies, 

A million faces at my feet but all I see are dark eyes.
