Something in Your Eyes

One of my favorite song composed by Karen's brother, Richard Carpenter, and sung by Dusty Springfield. Truly, another remarkable feat by Dusty, proving that she's the one true "white soul diva".

Dusty Springfield Something in Your Eyes Lyrics:


There was a certain face
That filled a thousand nights
With all the sweetest dreams
And promises of paradise
But that face was gone
When the dawn would come and steal you
Yet, I still could feel you
Waiting just a kiss away
I'd surely know your face
Your love would cast a spell
I'd recognise each curve
and line of you,
I knew it well
Now at last you're here and I can tell

Something in your eyes I see
Is all I ever wanted
And something in your smile for me
Is calling out my name
Your eyes, it seems
Are mirrors of my dreams
In ways I can't explain.
And my heart will never be the same

We never said a word
As if we'd always known
But through the bittersweet of waiting
We were not alone
Now we're close enough
For the touch of love to find us
Fantasies designed us
But they never really could
Begin to measure you
No pictures ever do
And as I watch you framed in sunlight
In a sky of blue
I know what my life's been leading to

Something in your eyes I see
Is all I ever wanted
And something in your smile for me
Is calling out my name
Your eyes, it seems
Are mirrors of my dreams
In ways I can't explain.
And my heart will never be the same

Something in your eyes I see
Is all I've ever wanted
And something in your smile for me
Is calling out my name
Your eyes, it seems
Are mirrors of my dreams
In ways I can't explain.
And my heart will never be the same
And my heart will never be the same

Something in your eyes

@yukinfahoo Richard's voice is one of the Carpenters' instruments. Only Richard has it, and it complemented Karen's voice :D

You really can hear Richards styling in this song, this is just the type of song he would have written for Karen, I can just hear her voice as I listen to it.
