Irish eyes

I kept looking above the trees
Further than the fields
Home skies crying to the waving of the leaves
You can give it to your faith
Or wear on your sleeve
Will you be the who stays or grieves?

Ooh. There's a silence
That calls you from the dark
Ooh. There's a wildness
That beats inside your heart

And the closest thing to heaven is you
When I look in your Irish eyes
And the closest thing to heaven is you
As we dance under starlit skies

Choirs of angels sing so loud
Jericho's bells are ringing out
'Cause the closest thing to heaven is you
When I look in your Irish eyes

It's the breaking of the waves on an endless beach
The rolling hills or the bogland peace
Lying in the grass on the wet ground
Where the roads rise up from God's land

Ooh. There's a silence
That calls you from the dark
Ooh. There's a wildness
That beats inside your heart

And the closest thing to heaven is you
When I look in your Irish eyes
And the closest thing to heaven is you
As we dance under starlit skies

Choirs of angels sing so loud
Jericho's bells are ringing out
'Cause the closest thing to heaven is you
When I look in your Irish eyes

Choirs of angels sing so loud
Jericho's bells are ringing out
And the closest thing to heaven is you
When I look in your Irish eyes
