At the turn of the century It was you and me Making history, baby, Always thought it was meant to be, We were humanly emotionally connected, I could have put it down to experience, I wish I put you down easy
[Chorus:] My blue eyed boy (I should have put you down) My blue eyes My blue eyed boy (I should have put you down) My blue eyes
I collected my dignity, With my mind at ease I've burned your pictures and your memories, Put back all the pieces of me, So hard to see with rose tinted glasses, I should have put you down to experience, I wish I put you down easy
[Chorus]
When all is said and done, We're sitting in the sun, Take life by the hand To live on till content, Say I let you go To be beautiful alone And though I forget your smile I remember those eyes, Those eyes…
