    Here's for my beautiful eyes, taken from us on August 14th. I'd thought I'd sort of moved on or reconstructed my life until I heard this song, so much of our life together. We were only married 29 years; a lifetime for so many, so short to Margaret and me. Loved and missed by all who knew, her, met her and spoke to her. Oh she had the prettiest eyes to behold by anybody. Dedicated to Margaret Ellen Roberts, loved by all, missed by everybody. XXX

    Achingly beautiful - a deep and meaningful love song, written by one of music's most underrated wordsmiths.
    I love the idea that each facial line represents a happy memory, and celebrates ageing and meaningful companionship, rather than lamenting it.
    My wife and I are now both in our 60s, but this has been "our" song for many, many years.
    She still smiles every time the last verse puts tears in my eyes........

    I grew up listening to the lovely music of The Beautiful South. When I was a kid in the 90s, my Mother would do the ironing on a Sunday for the week ahead, and would blast out 'Carry On Up the Charts' on the Hi-Fi system...great times. Paul Heaton is a musical genius. All the female singers and band members were great too, my personal favourites would be 'Let Love Speak Up Itself' and of course 'Prettiest Eyes'.

    Line one is the time
    That you, you first stayed over at mine
    And we drank our first bottle of wine
    And we cried
    Line two we're away
    And we both, we both had nowhere to stay
    Well the bus-shelter's always OK
    When you're young
    Now you're older and I look at your face
    Every wrinkle is so easy to place
    And I only write them down just in case
    That you die
    Let's take a look at these crows feet, just look
    Sitting on the prettiest eyes
    Sixty 25th of Decembers
    Fifty-nine 4th of Julys
    Not through the age or the failure, children
    Not through the hate or despise
    Take a good look at these crows feet
    Sitting on the prettiest eyes
    Line three I forget
    But I think, I think it was our first ever bet
    And the horse we backed was short of a leg
    Never mind
    Line four in a park
    And the things, the things that people do in the dark
    I could hear the faintest beat of your heart
    Then we did
    Now you're older and I look at your face
    Every wrinkle is so easy to place
    And I only write them down just in case
    You should die
    Lets take a look at these crows feet, just look
    Sitting on the prettiest eyes
    Sixty 25th of Decembers
    Fifty-nine 4th of Julys
    You can't have too many good times, children
    You can't have too many lines
    Take a good look at these crows feet
    Sitting on the prettiest eyes
    Well my eyes look like a map of the town
    And my teeth are either yellow or they're brown
    But you'll never hear the crack of a frown
    When you are here
    You'll never hear the crack
    Of a frown
    Brilliant :)

We became very close & exchanged our favorite music - They were both born in Liverpool, & I ... well ... you can imagine. Anyway - She introduced me to The Housemartins, & I simply couldn't stop playing those wonderful albums, all of which I have. Then, I was told that Paul Heaton formed The Beautiful South, & I collected all of those as well. My USA friends have no clue who these great musicians are. Their loss, for sure! :)

      @@boston-strong8887 Hi, great to hear from you, yes Paul Heaton is in my top four.Of course the Beatles are top.I love Joni Mitchell as well.But it's kind of reverse over here. As I am a big fan of Stephen Stills, but not many Brits know of him.

    My young lady friend of some 60 years standing was born with glaucoma in one eye and as I was always attracted to those with "Broken Wings" fell in love with her immediately!!
    Her calm acceptance of her condition due to her mother's birth problems was amazing!
    So, she'll always have the "Prettiest Eyes" to me especially as she always considers that "There's people worse off than me"
    Can't help loving her!!!❤
