Hattie Briggs old eyes

Old eyes, it's like staring into cloudy skies,
and you're all worn, you lie so still when the day is gone.
Blueridge and I took you down to the railway bridge,
in the sunshine, we stayed all day cos the weather was fine.
You won't remember friend just don't take
me for a stranger, when your hours are gone,
And when I think of all those times we
spent together, I'll picture you forever young.
The seaside, the strength of the wind and the full moon tide,
and I lost you, I found you again in the ice-cream queue.
And you won't remember friend just don't
take me for a stranger, when your hours are gone,
And when I think of all those times we spent
together, I'll picture you forever young, I'll picture you.
Home now, you sleep all day and you're tired somehow,
and I miss you, the way you smile and your eyes shine too.
And you won't remember friend,
just don't take me for a stranger, when your hours are gone,
And when I think of all those times we spent
together, I'll picture you forever young, I'll picture you.
You won't remember friend just don't take
me for a stranger, when your hours are gone,
And when I think of all those times we spent
together, I'll picture you forever young, I'll picture you.
