Ebony Eyes(Tribute version originally performed by The Everly Brothers)
Oooooh
- Oooooh
- On a weekend pass I wouldn't have had time
- To get home and marry that baby of mine
- So I went to the chaplain and he authorized
- Me to send for my ebony eyes
- My ebony eyes was coming to me
- From out of the skies on flight 1203
- In an hour or two I would whisper I do
- To my beautiful ebony eyes
- Oooh
- The plane was way overdue
- So I went inside to the airline's desk and I said
- Sir I wonder why 1203 is so late
- He said oh they probably took off late
- Or they may have run into some turbulent
- Weather and had to alter the course
- I went back outside and waited at the gate
- And I watched the beacon light from the control tower
- As it whipped through the dark
- Ebony skies if it were searching for
- My ebony eyes
- And then came the announcement over the loudspeaker
- Would those having relatives
- Or friends on flight number 1203
- Please report to the chapel across the street at once
- Then I felt a burning break deep inside
- And I knew the heavenly ebony skies
- Had taken my life's most wonderful prize
- My beautiful ebony eyes
- If I ever get to heaven I'll bet
- The first angel I'll recognize
- She'll smile at me and I know she will be
- My beautiful ebony eyes
- Ooh
