Try to think that love's not around Still it's uncomfortably near My own heart ain't gainin' no ground Because my Angel Eyes ain't here
Angel Eyes that old devil sent They glow unbearably bright Need I say that my love's mis-spent Mis-spent with Angel Eyes tonight
So drink up, drink up all you people And order anything you see Have fun you happy people The drink, and the laugh's, on me
Pardon me, but I gotta run The fact's uncommonly clear I gotta find who's now number one And why my Angel Eyes ain't here
I gotta find who's now the number one And why my Angel Eyes ain't here `Scuse me while I disappear
