Hazel Eyes

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I hail from the flatlands of East Anglia From a town that, once, could boast prosperity She had trekked for many moons, from a land afar But the cruel nets had emptied the northern sea [Pre-Chorus] And she said "Hoots, I cannae get back tae me hoos in bonny Scotland" [Chorus] Girl with the hazel eyes, aah Girl with the hazel eyes, aah [Verse 2] The elements had taken their toll on her Her face was weather beaten and her hair greasy I had never seen a set of eyes more hazeler-er And a tear did fall, as she looked up at me [Pre-Chorus] And she said "Hoots, I cannae get back tae me hoos in bonny Scotland" [Chorus] Girl with the hazel eyes, aah Girl with the hazel eyes, aah [Solo] [Bridge] I shall travel with thee For to see your folks in Scotland With their blessing, on one knee I shall ask for your left hand [Chorus] (x2) Girl with the hazel eyes, aah Girl with the hazel eyes, aah [Bridge] I shall travel with thee For to see your folks in Scotland With their blessing, on one knee I shall ask for your left hand
