Velvet Underground, The - Pale Blue Eyes Lyrics






Sometimes I feel so happy,
Sometimes I feel so sad.
Sometimes I feel so happy,
But mostly you just make me mad.
Baby, you just make me mad.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.

Thought of you as my mountain top,
Thought of you as my peak.
Thought of you as everything,
I've had but couldn't keep.
I've had but couldn't keep.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.

If I could make the world as pure and strange as what I see,
I'd put you in the mirror,
I put in front of me.
I put in front of me.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.

Skip a life completely.
Stuff it in a cup.
She said, Money is like us in time,
It lies, but can't stand up.
Down for you is up."
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.

It was good what we did yesterday.
And I'd do it once again.
The fact that you are married,
Only proves, you're my best friend.
But it's truly, truly a sin.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.
Linger on, your pale blue eyes.

    I know they are famous ..but this group still UNDERRATED.

  7. T.... V....

    After the breakup with my boyfriend, I was depressed for a long time. I finally decided to move to a different city. On the flight, I found out this song and it was on loop for the whole flight... This song always brings me nostalgia about the time we were together.. Although we haven't met or talked in four years, I hope he's doing great.

  8. A.... M....

    Maeve and otis

  9. S.... ....

    ADVENTURELAND ANYONE?????????

  10. s.... ....

    Came form High Kick 2

  11. n.... d....

    who from fringe?
    nobody
    everybody from sex education

  12. F.... C....

    These last years have been terrible, i discovered this song thanks to sex education, i would like to have someone to talk 😶

  13. V.... ....

    This song brings me back to being 13-14, incredibly angsty and lonely. But it’s beautiful. Made my eyes tear up and nose burn.

  14. F.... S....

    Hate when a good song gets used in a tv show, completely ruins the comment section :(

  15. T.... K....

    Whose here from Adventureland?

  16. 1.... W....

    I'm here because of Adventureland, and it's a great song

  22. N.... V....

    I pity this generation of young people, who'll probably never expierence putting on an album. A physical object. Listening to it on a good stereo, not this spotify with smartphone speakers bullshit. Listening to a full album, having a good conversation. No netflix, no smartphones, no distractions. No wonder they're so sad.

  23. A.... v....

    i came from a Good Omens fan comic.

  24. F.... t....

    I am here because I have liked the Velvet Underground and Lou Reed for decades.
    It is obviously quite unusual to choose to listen to a great song without the direction of an outside source, but finding this greatness is all that matters.

  39. D.... R....

    Who's here before sex education?

  51. V.... S....

    Sex education 2 - episode 3 - ending song

  52. S.... ....

    That moment when you didn't come from sex education or anything else, but you already were in love with the song

    S.... ....

    That would make you a Velvet Underground fan. There's room for more though, don't worry.....;-D

    S.... ....

    @Anthony Jones all right i'll check them out

    S.... ....

    @Anthony Jones i like sunday morning as well, u got any recommendations?

    S.... ....

    @Skyler I like their original album "The Velvet Underground & Nico" produced by Andy Warhol, but some of the tracks are a bit louder. I particularly like "I'll Be Your Mirror" - kind of rings a bell with me I guess. Many of the tracks sound a lot more modern than they are though, for an album that came out in the mid sixties.

    S.... ....

    @Anthony Jones thakns man, i'll check it out

  53. M.... S....

    this song is so cute and sad at the same time

    I felt so happy when maeve said that I will punch you dickhead (sex education)

  64. R.... S....

    Whos here from adventure land

  65. A.... �....

    I like Sex ed, but I hope that more tv shows will use this kind of music as folks are too lazy to search deeper in youtube and art like this deserves more attention and affection.

    A.... �....

    @A lesser Gracie first of all, not Mr., just a douchebag that spends days and nights on youtube searching for music depending on my mood or watching movies, and being boring smartass...2nd Lou Reed is legend, although I didnt listen to much of his songs, but recommend Vicious and How do think it feels...gotta admit that it needs time to process and understand artists like this. I also admit that I was maybe lucky because my father used to by CDs when they were in, and we would spend hours listening to them...but my way with searching songs like this: first to find about band on google and see their albums, then type them on youtube if they exist, spend weeks on processing them, if I like the genre of music, also type it on google, see what bands they recommend you and search for it...there you go...now go, listen these songs, and try Foggy notion from Velvets also...hope they wont dissapoint you...I respect everybody choices, but you are missing ome of the rarest paradises im this fucked up world

    A.... �....

    @Antonio Šimić Wow that is some research you do. How do you find out about a band?
    You mean CDs are not in anymore?

    A.... �....

    @A lesser Gracie you're smart enough, you will manage it.
    And no.

    A.... �....

    @Antonio Šimić ahh come on give me some names of new music, I haven't a clue, I listen to the same music over and over, thinking I should expand my horizons.

    A.... �....

    @A lesser Gracie just continue the way that your favourites are showing on your profile ;)

  66. S.... ....
