She loved him most when his eyes were gray   The palest shade of a winter day   They filled her with a raging fire   And a bittersweet desire      She shined for him like candlelight   That softly beckons in the night   But he said no right to her face   Then simply turned and walked away      All Heaven watched from way on high   True love given and denied   And while her heart was broke and bleeding   Sorrowful angels wept into their wings      She wore him like a lock and chain   Only in dreams she spoke his name   By day it slipped upon her tongue   The taste of unrequited love      Now her hair is long and gray   The palest shade of a winter day   She never took a ring of gold   She swears she never loved a soul      All Heaven watched from way on high   True love given and denied   And while her heart was broke and bleeding   Sorrowful angels wept into their wings   Sorrowful angels wept into their wings      She loved him most when his eyes were gray
