Accompaniment:
Lyrics
- Every day some feature divine
Runs thru my mind, seems to tell me
I’ve been mighty lucky to find
Eyes you can’t compare
Refrain
Baby Blue Eyes, they’re clever
Baby Blue Eyes, they’re ever
In my mind they seem to want me, haunt me
In my ‘wake or in my dreams
I can’t forget it seems
Always smiling for me
Brighter than the sunlight that beams
I idolize entrancing Baby Blue Eyes, they’re dancing
‘Round my heart each night and day
They rave of eyes of every hue
Even dreamy brown ones, too
But you’ve got the surprise
In your wonderful Baby Blue Eyes
- Eyes I’ve seen attractive and true
I’m telling you
Are back numbers when you try
Comparing them to baby eyes of blue
