Arlo Parks - Green Eyes Lyrics

Summer in my eyelids
Eatin' rice and beans
Paintin' Kaia's bedroom
Think she wanted green
But the weather puts you on my mind
Dragonfruit and peaches in the wine
Kissin' circles underneath your eyes

Of course I know why we lasted two months
Could not hold my hand in public
Felt their eyes judging
Our love and baying for blood
I could never blame you darling
(Oh, oh-oh-oh)

Some of these folks wanna make you cry
But you've gotta trust how you feel inside
And shine, and shine
Yeah (yeah, yeah)

I wish that your parents had been kinder to you
They made you hate what you were out of habit
Remember when they caught us making out after school
Your dad said he felt like he'd lost you

So I know why we lasted two months
Could not hold my hand in public
Felt their eyes judging
Our love and baying for blood
I could never blame you darling
(Oh, oh-oh, girl)

Some of these folks wanna make you cry
But you've gotta trust how you feel inside
And shine, and shine
Yeah (yeah, yeah)
Some of these folks wanna make you cry
But you've gotta trust how you feel inside
And shine, and shine
Yeah
