Eyes Of Blue - Paul Carrack

I want to know how does it feel 
Behind those eyes of blue 
You've made your mistakes 
And now your heart aches 
Behind those eyes of blue 

People may say you've had your chance 
And let it slip away 
But hard as they try 
There's a dream that won't die 
Behind those eyes of blue 

Maybe once in a while 
There's a trace of a smile 
Behind those eyes of blue 
But it's painfully clear 
There's a river of tears 
Behind those eyes of blue 

You know life is too short 
For comprimising 
Take a hold of your dream 
And realise it 

You know there's nothing left 
To stand in your way 
Except yourself and I know 
Though your hearts full of pain 
That a hope still remains 
Behind those eyes of blue
