Sullen eyes, southern glows
Hear my pleas, soften blows
Meet my needs? No one knows
Sullen eyes, let me go
Sullen eyes, let me go
Concrete walks and solemn talks
I wanted more than city blocks
I watched the sea wash through your eyes
I watched you leave to my surprise
Callused heart and callused soul
Through the fields leading me home
Sullen eyes, southern glows
Hear my pleas, soften blows
Meet my needs? No one knows
Sullen eyes, let me go
Sullen eyes, let me go
Breathing in the meadow air
Leave far behind the one not there
Watch the fireflies dance at night
Far from the city I've found my light
Sullen eyes, southern glows
Hear my pleas, soften blows
Meet my needs? No one knows
Sullen eyes, let me go
Sullen eyes, let me go
My sullen eyes
No longer cry
Believe me, Believe me
Simple joys
Drown out the big town noise
Believe me, Believe me
Sullen eyes, southern glows
Hear my pleas, soften blows
Meet my needs? No one knows
Sullen eyes, let me go
Sullen eyes, let me go
Sullen eyes, southern glows
Hear my pleas, soften blows
Meet my needs? No one knows
Sullen eyes, let me go
Sullen eyes, let me go
