Sparkle Eyes - Steppenwolf

Oh Woman, don’t you know me?

Has it been so long that you forgot

I thought of you just yesterday

My time it has been dragging

And I’ve changed girl but so have you

Please don’t turn your face away

It’s in your eyes I know

Where did the sparkle go?

Sparkle eyes used to shine ev’ry day

God, I wish I never had seen you looking this way

Can’t recall just who was wrong

Guess it doesn’t matter now

To dredge the past I’ve no desire

But it hurts to feel your sadness

And to see the life you’ve led

Faceless fountains cooled your fire

It was mine not long ago

Where did the sparkle flow?

Sparkle Eyes used to smile at the rain

Don’t I wish that I could see it again

Where did the sparkle go?

Now if I only knew where to begin

Girl, I’d try to break your fall and stop your spin

But time has changed us both too many ways

And I’m looking at a strange and empty face

And your eyes used to shine every day

If I had only never seen you lookin' this way

Those faceless fountains they cooled your fire

It was mine not so very long ago

Your eyes would laugh at the rain

You don’t know how I wish I could see it again

I just can’t stand to watch you goin' down slow

Where did the sparkle go?
