Elisabeth's Eyes Lyrics - Singles - Nik Kershaw

I told my tale with some words 

From jail and a Bible vow 

But fear and fury were my judge and 

Jury so here I am now 

There was a letter 

A hundred letters 

I wrote a letter 

It said "Hi! Mr. President I hope 

You're fit and strong" 

And I hope you'll give me every 

Chance to live because they done me wrong 

My hope lies in Elisabeth's eyes 

Love I will never have known 

My hope lies in Elisabeth's eyes 

Alone 

Still reeling I detect a feeling that I'm here to stay 

Somebody locked me up 

Somebody threw my key away 

I got a letter 

A single letter 

I read the letter 

It said "Hang in there boy 

I am fighting for you still" 

It was then I knew I really loved her too 

I guess I always will 

(Chorus) 

Another letter 

The last letter 

I wrote a letter 

It said "Don't cry lady, you really shouldn't care" 

Tuesday at seven I will find my heaven 

And I'll see you there 

(Chorus 2x)
