Brown eyes are romantic
Brown eyes belong to the boys I've loved
The girls I've loved
The boy I love
The boy I will love
And the girl I will love

Brown eyes belong to my mother
Who never quite saw how beautiful she was
Brown eyes belong to my first crush
Who gave me my very first kiss

Brown eyes belong to my first love
Who taught me that pain and pleasure can be the same
Brown eyes belong to my first girlfriend
Who introduced me to a new part of my sexuality

Brown eyes belong to my Sunshine
Who took my virginity and my heart
Brown eyes belong to my current love
Who is showing me that forever is possible with him

Brown eyes belong to this guy I'm getting to know
Who I know I will fall for someday soon
Brown eyes belong to the girl I will soon meet
Who holds another piece of my heart without knowing yet

So don't tell me that brown eyes are dull
Don't tell me that green and blue are more romantic
Don't say brown eyes are the dominant color and therefore mundane
Don't say that brown eyes belong to people who are full of shit

Brown eyes carry the very earth that nurtures us
Brown eyes in the sunlight are made of the gold that adorns our skin
Brown eyes are the sweet chocolates that most of us crave
Brown eyes are the windows to the most beautiful souls I know
