Sleepy Eyes

Well I've been loving only you for so long
And I've never once regretted a single day
And it took a lot of woman
To stay right a lot of woman
To stay right here so long
Through all those long old lonely nights
And all my old fashion ways

Sleepy eyes, sleeping in the falling rain
        lonely skies, crying on the window pane
        Oh you're mine only, always mine only
        Sleepy eyes sleeping in the falling rain

When I go out and travel
Round this country side
I'll make 'em forget their problems
For awhile and it dosen't take too much
To ease this heart of mine
Just a good ole' country melody
And your sweet summer smile

* Refrain
