John Hiatt - God's Golden Eyes Lyrics

Artist: John Hiatt

Album: Crossing Muddy Waters

Genre: Country

  • Songwriters: John Hiatt

And I came through the forest
Jealousy and greed
All our loved ones before us
They gave us everything we need

To cross that great river
Of every tear was ever cried
Till we find ourselves starin'
In God's golden eyes

In the desert love waited
Licking salt water from her skin
We could have been sedated
For all that we put in

We thought it was some Devil
Who put the crying in goodbye
Till we found ourselves starin'
In God's golden eyes
We found ourselves starin'
In God's golden eyes

And we did all we could do
We couldn't run from me and you
We did the best we could
No matter how hard we tried

Like babes we come whining
For some forgotten sin
Surprised to be shining
Just like diamonds in the wind

Every facet so perfect
And every cut the proper size
When we find ourselves starin'
In God's golden eyes
We find ourselves starin'
In God's golden eyes
