Sitting in a booth by myself
Drinking coffee and not much else
I got the papers open
Then my waitress walks by
Looks to my side
Shakes her head and says
I guess we're finally here
And then she smiles
She's got Alphabet Eyes
So full of questions, I
I still can't answer
Yeah when she smiles
She's got Alphabet Eyes
Then the words pour out
And streak her face like tears
I put on my coat
And put on my hat
Put on some style
And think
I'll leave it at that
And start walking down the street
Doesn't matter how many
Beautiful people pass me by, I
I can't see the wood
For the trees
Cause when she smiles
She's got Alphabet Eyes
So full of questions, I
I still can't answer
Yeah when she smiles
She's got Alphabet Eyes
Then the words pour out
And streak her face like tears
All this was for love and
For loving you
I may never be happy
I'll draw my shades blue
Every night
Until I find another way I can reach you
Sitting in a booth
By myself
Drinking whiskey
And not much else
I got the papers open
Then a waitress walks by
Maybe reading my mind
Shakes her head and says
You'd be better off with beer
And then she smiles
She's got Alphabet Eyes
So full of questions, I
I've yet to answer
Yeah when she smiles
She's got Alphabet Eyes
And tears of joy roll down her cheeks
And we're rapt in laughter
I'll never be alone
Or lonely again
