Steve Poltz - Light in Your Eyes lyrics

Saw a guy get his tooth pulled in Morocco In a jam-packed square in Marrakesh By a so-called dentist with a monkey on a leash With a pair of pliers in his palms And the dentist would pull on the monkey's arm And the monkey would yank on the tooth And the patient was screaming in terror and fear And the crowd was starting to cheer Well, I've seen a lot of things Huge shiny diamond rings And I've seen two grown men cry But I never saw the light Like I did in your eyes The light in your eyes Saw a guy get sick on a rolling ship In the middle of a storm on the North Sea And that storm was so rough and i thought I would die That ship felt as light as a toy And I prayed all night on my hands and my knees 'Til the storm finally let up And the captain let out a yell and a cry As the sun burst through from the sky Well, I've seen a lot of things Huge shiny diamond rings And I've seen two grown men cry But I never saw the light Like I did in your eyes The light in your eyes Saw my sister give birth to my niece in a room In a hospital in San Diego She asked if I'd take pictures of the whole she-bang I smiled when she made me the offer But when I got in the room and it started to happen My hands couldn't move and my legs were stuck The doctor just laughed and my sister just sighed I was frozen in time and I started to cry Well, I've seen a lot of things Huge shiny diamond rings And I've seen two grown men cry But I never saw the light Like I did in your eyes The light in your eyes...
