Analysis of A Woman's Eyes
I've seen the mountains tall and fair
Their snowcapped peaks so white
I've traveled over oceans wide
To watch horizon's light
I've scanned the canyons rivers too
I've watched the mustangs run
Beholding nature at its best
The lovely sky and sun
But in this world so beautiful
The finest sweet surprise
Is when I softly gaze into
A lovely woman's eyes
