I heard a song that I once knew,
you played it on a Saturday when the sun was gone.
A familiar melody that sung of sunshine days -
you played it to me when I faced the rain -
it reminds me of your blue eyes crying in the rain.

I heard a song and it was love,
you sung it like you never sung before,
like your soul was winged and your voice was war,
and it took me back to my younger days
when I heard your blue eyes crying in the rain.

I heard a song and I just knew
that no one in this world compares to you,
not the light in her eyes or the swing in her step,
not the voices that ring when they steal my sleep -
Oh I heard your blue eyes shining in the rain.

Somebody sang a song for you;
I could see your blue eyes shining like the sky,
chasing away the rain clouds in my mind,
and it will always be a part of me
to see your blue eyes shining in the rain.

And I will sing for you and sunshine days.
