Chinawoman Blue Eyes Unchanged song lyrics

Across from me, on the bus this afternoon

A girl of age ninety, eyes of blue

Peering out from a body changed too soon

I saw the girl so charming in her youth

Her hat reveals a woman of taste

Now just to get off this bus is a torturous fate

She'll slowly make the way back to her place

An apartment where no one awaits

Blue eyes unchanged

The body aged

Blue eyes you are my last witnesses now

Blue eyes unchanged

The body aged

Blue eyes tell me what you wanted to be

When you grew up

Blue eyes once reflected in her mother's gaze

On those summers as a child by the lake

Blue eyes saw love's first embrace

The boy down the road

I wonder if he's alive today

Young girls go laughing past on the road

No one pays attention to the old

But at least we know justice will be served

In the end everyone gets their turn

Blue eyes unchanged

The body aged

Blue eyes you are my last witnesses now

Blue eyes unchanged

The body aged

Blue eyes tell me what you wanted to be

When you grew up
