(peak Billboard position # 28 in 1965)
Words and Music by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil
In the eyes of the world I`m a loser just wastin` my time
I can`t make a dime
In the eyes of the world being born was my first big mistake
I can`t get a break
But in the eyes of my woman I stand
Like a hero, a giant, a man who`s as tall as can be
Any fool can see
That she`s lookin` through the eyes of love (lookin` through the eyes of
love)
Lookin` through the eyes of love (lookin` through the eyes of love)
Lookin` through the eyes of love when she looks at me-ee.
In the eyes of the crowd I`m a do-nothin` kind of a guy
Who`ll just live and die
In the eyes of the crowd I`m another poor Joe on the street
Can`t get on my feet
But in the eyes of my woman they`re wrong
I`m a king and a lover as strong and as brave as can be
Any fool can see
That she`s lookin` through the eyes of love (lookin` through the eyes of
love)
Lookin` through the eyes of love (lookin` through the eyes of love)
Lookin` through the eyes of love when she looks at me-ee.
She`s making me believe someday
Someday I`m gonna find a way
To be the man that she can see
When she looks at me (lookin` through the eyes of love)
Lookin` through the eyes of love (lookin` through the eyes of love)
Lookin` through the eyes of love (lookin` through the eyes of love)
Lookin` through the eyes of love (lookin` through the eyes of love)
Lookin` through the eyes of love.
