But I feel nothing for their game where beauty goes unrecognized All I feel is heat and flame and all I see are dark eyes. [Interlude] | * | | * | | | * | | * | | [Verse] 4 Oh the French girl she’s in paradise and a drunken man is at the wheel Hunger pays a heavy price to the falling gods of speed and steel Oh time is short and the days are sweet and passion rules the arrow that flies A million faces at my feet but all I see are dark eyes [Solo] | * | | * | | | * | | * | | |    | |    | | | * | | * | | [Coda] | * |
