About The Story in Your Eyes

"The Story in Your Eyes" is a 1971 hit single by the English rock band the Moody Blues. Written by the band's guitarist Justin Hayward, it was first released as a single with "My Song" on the B-side, and then on the 1971 album Every Good Boy Deserves Favour shortly after. "The Story in Your Eyes" was the Moody Blues' final single to feature the Mellotron as it would be supplanted by the chamberlin, a similar instrument in time for their next album, Seventh Sojourn. The SACD release of the album Every Good Boy Deserves Favour contains a version of "The Story in Your Eyes" that has the Mellotron in dominant role. The distinctive picture sleeve used for the French single release used a photograph of a close-up face with the Threshold logo in place of the mouth. more »

I've been thinking about our fortune And I've decided that we're really not to blame For the love that's deep inside us now, is still the same And the sound we make together Is the music to the story in your eyes It's been shining down upon you now, I realize  Listen to the tide slowly turning Wash all our heartaches away We are part of the fire that is burning And from the ashes we can build another day But I'm frightened for your children And the life that we are living is in vain And the sunshine we've been waiting for Will turn to rain  When the final line is over And it's certain that the curtain's gonna fall I can hide inside your sweet sweet love Forever more  Listen to the tide slowly turning Wash all our heartaches away We are part of the fire that is burning And from the ashes we can build another day But I'm frightened for your children And the life that we are living is in vain And the sunshine we've been waiting for Will turn to rain
