English Lyrics
The version written for English audiences varies from the Spanish. The Big Band version typically had a male voice singing these words, followed by a female voice singing the same words, with the exception of the last line. This is one version:
- Well, Green Eyes with their soft lights
- Your eyes that promise sweet nights,
- Bring to my soul a longing, a thirst for love divine
- In dreams I seem to hold you, to find you and enfold you
- Our lips meet and our hearts, too, with a thrill so sublime
- Those cool and limpid Green Eyes
- A pool wherein my love lies
- So deep that in my searching for happiness
- I fear that they will ever haunt me
- All through my life they'll taunt me
- But will they ever want me?
(Male voice)
- Green Eyes, make my dreams come true.
(Female voice)
- Green Eyes, I love you.
