The Night Has A Thousand Eyes

Bing Crosby · Other Songs - Bing Crosby

Don't whisper things to me you don't mean

For words deep down inside can be seen by the night

The night has a thousand eyes

And it knows the truth apart from one that lies



The romance may have cooled in the past

My love for you will be everlasting and bright

As bright as a starlit sky

And the wondrous night that has a thousand eyes



I've lived my life walking through a dream

For I knew that I would find this moment supreme

A night of bliss and tender sighs

And the smiling down of a thousand eyes



A night of bliss and tender sighs

And the smiling down of a thousand eyes

The night has a thousand eyes
