And Darling Clementines
But it's so hard to find
I was always looking for ya
Bright smile, dark eyes
Bright smile, dark eyes
Man is only half himself
Smile, dark eyes
Bright smile, dark eyes
Oh, Imogene and Abelard
I was always looking for ya
If she's your only one
I'm your homeward boy
Just pin your heartbeat up against my heartbeat
Then she is also mine
But there's another one
Bright smile, dark eyes
Bright smile, dark eyes
And the boat she weaved from the tidal reeds
With Calamity Janes and the Steamboat Casanovas
I'm looking for some peace
For man is ever a blind thing
Oh, bright smiles and dark eyes
With bright smiles and dark eyes
Everywhere I went, oh
He tumbles on by luck or grace
Was always tied to shore
Everywhere I went, oh
An' now everywhere I went, oh
Bright smile, dark eyes
With bright smiles and dark eyes
And you'll see how well we rhyme
Who brings me to your door
I was always looking for ya
The other half is a bright thing
