Dear boy with the brown eyes I was wondering where you were tonight If you were going about town With some cute girl in your arms Dear boy with the brown eyes I wouldn't mind, oh how could I mind When we are but thousands of miles apart Calm this senseless beating of my heart Dear boy with the brown eyes Don't you dare promise the moon and stars For my heart, oh this heart of mine Couldn't help but wish you were true Dear boy with the brown eyes With the jazz and alcohol that drowns me Tonight I long for unadulterated romance You are the illusion I hold on to as truth Dear boy with the brown eyes Will you ever be more than a convenient dream? Reach out your hand to touch me Let me know, let me know you are real
