Sparkle Eyes Lyrics - For Ladies Only - Steppenwolf

Oh Woman, don't you know me? 

Has it been so long that you forgot 

I thought of you just yesterday 

My time it has been dragging 

Please don't turn your face away 

And I've changed girl but so have you 

It's in your eyes I know 

Where did the sparkle go? 

God, I wish I never had seen you looking this way 

Sparkle eyes used to shine ev'ry day 

Can't recall just who was wrong 

Guess it doesn't matter now 

But it hurts to feel your sadness 

To dredge the past I've no desire 

Faceless fountains cooled your fire 

And to see the life you've led 

Where did the sparkle flow? 

It was mine not long ago 

Sparkle Eyes used to smile at the rain 

Where did the sparkle go? 

Don't I wish that I could see it again 

Now if I only knew where to begin 

Girl, I'd try to break your fall and stop your spin 

And I'm looking at a strange and empty face 

If I had only never seen you lookin' this way 

But time has changed us both too many ways 

Those faceless fountains they cooled your fire 

And your eyes used to shine every day 

You don't know how I wish I could see it again 

It was mine not so very long ago 

Your eyes would laugh at the rain 

Where did the sparkle goI just can't stand to watch you goin' down slow
