You must leave for the morning comes   Understand me my blue eyed one   I don't wish to see you gone   You see for me you are the only one   I could not leave you to their guns   Understand me blue eyed son      Every time they see you around   I can hear their lies putting you down   See the faces all over this town   Walking along with their eyes to the ground   I could not lead you onto their guns   Understand me blue eyed son      Blue eyed, Blue eyed son   Blue eyed, Blue eyed son   Blue eyed, Blue eyed son   Blue eyed, Blue eyed son      From the hallway into your room   I can see you before the moon   Understand me my blue eyed son   I do not wish to see you gone   Look away if you don't like the sound   I could not share what I have found      Blue eyed, Blue eyed son   Blue eyed, Blue eyed son   Blue eyed, Blue eyed son   Blue eyed, Blue eyed son
