Jewel - Violet Eyes On Piano

Own arranged version of jewel's violet eyes. A song she has written about her best friend, who was like a second mum to her, died of cancer on 4th of july.. I really hope you get the emotions i put in, let me know =)!

LYRICS:

It's been a while since you've been around
I'm drifting like a gypsy from town to town
I've been to France and Rome
Seen Duomo's glittered domes
Laid beneath Spanish summer skies
I've seen nothing so lovely as your violet eyes

Do you recall the turquoise sea?
On the isles off the shores of Greece
I've sworn I won't forget
Your exact smile when we went
I see you in everything
And everywhere I go,
I see your violet eyes

Seasons come and seasons pass
Time can seem so fragile as a looking glass
Oh, I know there must be something more constant than time
Cause everywhere I go,
I see your violet eyes

If I could write a post card to you
And know that somehow it would get through
I'm not sure I could express
This aching in my chest
I guess I'll always miss you
And everywhere I go,
I see your violet eyes

Seasons come and seasons pass
Time can seem so fragile as a looking glass
Oh, I know there must be something more constant than time
Cause everywhere I go,
I see your violet eyes

It was a year ago last Christmas
We spent in Hawaii
Laughing beneath the stars
Playing in the sand not snow
Laughing in the sea
It'll be a year this coming 4th of July
When I held your hand
And for the last time,
You closed your Violet Eyes

Seasons come and seasons pass
Time can seem so fragile as
Fragile like a looking glass
I know there must be something more constant than time
Cause at night when I sleep
I feel you all around me
I feel your eyes upon me
I see your Violet Eyes

you were meant for me who will save you soul foolish games

My Daughter wants to sing Violet eyes at a cancer charity event this coming march in the UK but we cant find the backing music anywhere!

[marilefay]

Wow, seriously brought tears to my eyes like the original. Keep it up!

[Candyann22]

This is beautifully done. Still brings tears to my eys just like the orig.

[goldenrod2]

Yeah, it's just ok for me. I mean, It's too slow and and If it were not titled I would have never guessed it was 'Violet eyes'. It does not work like the way it does on a guitar and with an actual vocal. But it's ok...it's not bad.

[GUINEAMERIO]
