The Eye Color Ballad Lyrics

"Hello, what's wrong?"

"Ah nothing, no it's stupid you wouldn't really-"

"Nah you're good man, go ahead"

"It's just that blue-eyed people get all of the good compliments, and I have brown eyes. I don't really get any-"

Your eyes are like dirt-

"Dirt?"
Hold on, I mean that as a compliment because dirt's the source of food and life in every single continent

They sparkle like topaz

The stars could never parallel

They look so sweet, like coffee filled with caramel

"That's pretty sweet"

And like the autumn leaves, that fall from all the trees, the colors in your eyes aren't as loved as they ought to be

The warmth inside of them matches the heart inside of me

It's like its meant to be

"Wow!"

"See, brown eyes can be beautiful too, it's all about loving truly what was given to you"

"But, I'm sure you want to know if I can do it, if I'm able, what would I say if they were hazel?"

Your eyes have a little bit of everything

"Uh, yeah, obviously"
And I'd rather have a jack of all than a master of one

Your eyes hold true surprise, a single color's no fun

They are second to none, and they dance in the sun

And the one thing I remember about eyes like yours is I can go sifting through them every time I'm bored

To find nuggets of gold, like in the California rivers

If you ever need a gift, a hazel eye is going to deliver

"Woah, shivers, those eyes are winners too. It's almost like your eyes are something unique just to you."

"But I know your mind is wandering, as you become serene, what would I say if they were green?"

Your eyes shine like emeralds in the light

"Yeah?"

They resemble lovely sights

"Oh?"

Fireflies glowing bright and warming up the night
"Aw"

An attempt to match their vibrance is a fail on every try

With eyes like four-leaf clovers, know that luck is by your side

Because the odds of having eyes with Mother Natures' favorite color is a feat that's so rare you would be shocked to find another

So whenever you think green is super icky or it sucks, just remember that in nature, it's a healthy sign of love

"See? Duh, every eye has magic, hidden in the iris that's woven tight like fabric"

"Of course, you're not convinced yet. You must know what I do. What would I say if they were blue?" Your eyes are like diamonds

"That's cheesy"

You're right, that's easy

And comparing to the sky or ocean waves would feel like cheating

Cause your eyes are so much more than that, there must be deeper meaning

Cause your gaze feels like a home I could stay without ever leaving

They are calm but bold

Warm but cold

With little flecks of green and maybe little flecks of gold

They are windows to the soul, and your soul is something special

See your eyes are just a glimpse of the beauty inside your vessel

"Wow, and true beauty there is. Found outside and from beauty within"

"And you don't even have to ask how I think I would react if your eyes were so dark they looked black"

Your eyes are like the boldest of obsidian

"Like the rock?"

No, like the glass from a volcano that could blow you to oblivion

It's like one in a million

Now you're basking in the glory

Your eyes are pools of ink that could tell like a thousand stories

Your eyes aren't empty, that's far from the truth

Space looks empty too until you get a better view

The night is in your eyes, the universe is part of you

If only you could see yourself how other people do

"Phew, I won't lie, what a crazy journey, but it isn't finished yet there's still color that's yearning."

"So join me in this moment, there's no need for more delay, what would I say if they were grey?"

Your eyes remind me of the moon

"No way"

It's true!

They're the light inside the dark and change the tide when their in view

The dark being the world

The tide being my mood

Your eyes blow me away like hurricanes and monsoons

I knew that the moment that I met your gaze of steel

That your eyes were holding stories that may never be revealed

They are fierce at first, and you may think that's not ideal

But I hope you come to learn the comfort that you make others feel

"Hooray! I think we're finally done"

"A simple song for every eye that's shining in the sun"

"Even after this, I'm sure I've probably missed a few, but I've hope by now we've learned the beauty's inside of..."

"... you"
