Gloria's Eyes (Album Version)

Gloria's Eyes(Album Version)—Bruce Springsteen

I was your big man I was your prince charming

King on a white horse hey now look how far I've fallen

I tried to trick you yeah but baby you got wise

You cut me cut me right down to size

Now I'm just a fool in Gloria's eyes

Swore I'd get you back I was so sure

I'd get you back like I done so many times before

A little sweet talk to cover over all of the lies

You came runnin' back but to my surprise

Well there was somethin' gone in Gloria's eyes

Well in the dark when it was just me and you

I asked the question that I knew the answer to

Is that a smile my little dolly on the shelf

Tell me is that a smile

Or is it something else

Now I work hard to prove my love is true

Now I work hard and I bring it on home to you

At night I pray as silently you lie

Some day my love again will rise

Like a shining torch in Gloria's eyes

I was your big man your prince charming
