Bright Eyes - Lyrics

by Art Garfunkel

Is it a kind of dream
Floating out of the tide
Following the river of death downstream
Oh is it a dream

There’s a fog along the horizon
A strange glow in the sky
And nobody seems to know where it goes
And what does it mean
Oh is it a dream

Bright eyes burning like fire
Bright eyes how can you close and fail
How can the light that burned so brightly
Suddenly burn so pale
Bright eyes

Is it a kind of shadow
Reaching into the night
Wandering over the hills unseen
Or is it a dream

There’s a high wind in the trees
A cold sound in the air
And nobody ever knows when you go
And where do you start
Oh into the dark

Bright eyes burning like fire
Bright eyes how can you close and fail
How can the light that burned so brightly
Suddenly burn so pale
Bright eyes

Bright eyes burning like fire
Bright eyes how can you close and fail
How can the light that burned so brightly
Suddenly burn so pale
Bright eyes
