I fell in love with your brown hair flowing in the window
I fell in love with your brown hair glowing in the beam
I fell in love with your brown hair heldfast to my pillow
Peace and everlasting blinded by the gleam
But ooo the hold that you've got on me
Ooo the hold the you've got on me
Just a feather on the wing
I fell in love with your brown eyes, coffee on the patio
I fell in love with your brown eyes heavy on the plane
I fell in love with your brown eyes gliding over Mexico
You flounder in your dreaming
Of the future wrapped in cellophane
But ooo the hold that you've got on me
Ooo the hold the you've got on me
Just a feather on the wing
Heavy-handed love under the hood
I don't go walking just for the shoeshine
So if you only could release me
I fell in love with your white lies standing in the riverbed
I fell in love with your whitewater rapids down stream
I fell in love but why bother when the falls are up ahead
Or I'll be floating like an anchor, I'll be sinking like steam
But ooo the hold that you've got on me
Ooo the hold the you've got on me
Just a feather on the wing
Heavy-handed love under the hood
I don't go cruisin' just for the car wash
So if you only could release me
