It's been a while since you've been around
I've been drifting like a gypsy from town to town
I've been to France and Rome
I’ve seemed to almost (?)glittered doing(?)
I'd lay beneath the Spanish summer skies
But I've seen nothing so lovely as your violet eyes 

Do you recall the shore the turquoise seas?
On the isles of the shore of Greece
I've sworn I won't forget
Your exact smile or where we went
Oh I see you in everything
And everywhere I go
I see your violet eyes
Seasons come and seasons pass
Life can seem as fragile as a looking glass
Oh I know there must be something more constant than time
For a night when I sleep I feel you near me
I see your violet eyes

If I could write a postcard to you
I  know that somehow it would get through
Not sure I could express this aching in my chest
I guess that I'll always miss you
And everywhere I go I see your violet eyes
Seasons come and seasons pass
Time can seem as fragile as a looking glass
Oh I know there must be something more constant than time
For a night when I sleep I feel you near me
I see your violet eyes

It was a year ago last Christmas
We spent in Hawaii
We were laughing beneath the stars
playing in the sand, laughing in the sea
It will be a year coming this 4th of July
When for the last time I held your hand
And for the last time you closed your violet eyes
Seasons come and seasons pass
Life can seem as fragile
Oh as fragile as a looking glass
I know that there is something more constant than time
For at night when I sleep I feel you near me
I see your eyes upon me
I see your violet eyes
