MY BROWN EYED GIRL

(With apologies to Van Morrison)


Hey, where did we go

Soon after we first met?

Down to the picture show,

Eatin’ popcorn and watchin’ Shrek.



Sittin’ and a laughin’, hey, hey,

Talkin’ and a dinin’



in a little restaurant with my,

My heart a thumpin’ for you,

My brown eyed girl,



You, my brown eyed girl.



I’ll always remember

Our very first bicycle ride



Goin’ down the bike path

With this beautiful lady right by my side.



Ridin’ in the sunshine laughin’

Worries all left behind



Pedalin’ and ridin’

All along the biking trail with you,

My brown eyed girl.



You, my brown eyed girl.



And now the joy you bring,

It just makes me sing:

Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da

(just like that)

Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da,

La te da.



Been so hard to find my way

All these years I’ve been on my own



Then you stepped into my life one day

And now I’m no longer alone



And I’m givin’ thanks to the Lord

Sometimes I’m overcome thinkin’ ‘bout you



Laughin’ and a dancin’, hey, hey,

On the ballroom floor with you,

My brown eyed girl.



You, my brown eyed girl.



And now the joy you bring,

It just makes me sing:



Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da

Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da,

La te da.





Happy Birthday, Debra
