Well you stay with me, in the balcony,
                                  
And we'll sink in our seas as the people all leave
                            
And we can hide out as the curtain comes down
                             
And then fall asleep to the sleeping sound
                        
When the morning is drawing near
                        
I'll see if the coast is clear



                         
Green eyes are better than blue
                                 
I ain't trying to be mean, just telling the truth
                                 
It's enough to make me run away with you
                                   
Darling green eyes are better than blue

                             
She says, "This isn't easy, you know
                          
Loving the hands that you ain't supposed to hold
                             
And I pray for the days when I won't sleep alone"
                             
She says, "This isn't easy, you know"

(chorus)

                            
Well Johnny says don't bring her down
                                   
'Cause when the pedestal crumbles and falls to the ground
                                  
You will wish that you left her the way that you'd found her
                           
Now Johnny says don't bring her down

(chorus)

                                
Well I saw you in the water last night
                             
You were smiling at me as you slipped out of sight
                               
When I woke from my dream I was screaming for life
                                  
'Cause I saw you in the water last night

(chorus)
