Pretty brown eyes

Is it a crime to want that old thing back?
Can it be wrong to miss the way you used to kiss me?
Back in the day, back to the way you used to love me

Now you've got me ready to break the law again
'Cause I made a vow to rock with you 'til the end
So, tell me why lately you ain't been the same?
'Cause I remember when you said

Right from the door, said "Can we talk?"
You had me caught, got to admit it, love
Let's cut straight to the point
You know with me is where you belong

Now here we are, how did we grow so much apart
So far from the start?
Let's cut straight to the point
Baby, you know with me is where you belong

Pretty brown eyes, you know, I need you
That's why I keep holding on, I can't let go
I hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
I keep holding on after all your rejection

And I don't wanna let go
But you should know
I'll move on, I'll move on, I'll move on
Pretty brown eyes

So let's go, let me know
You know where you belong
What's the hold?
Baby, you know with me is where you belong

It's like one minute you're warm, and then the next you're so cold
I never know when you're coming or going, hey
Tell me why lately you ain't been the same?
I still remember when you said

Right from the door, said "Can we talk?"
You had me caught, got to admit it, love
Let's cut straight to the point
You known with me is where you belong

Now here we are, how did we grow so much apart
So far from the start?
Let's cut straight to the point
Baby, you know with me is where you belong

Pretty brown eyes, you know I need you
That's why I keep holding on, I can't let go
I hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
I keep holding on after all your rejection

'Cause I don't wanna let go
But you should know
I'll move on, I'll move on, I'll move on
Pretty brown eyes

And I don't want to be the one to tell you everything
'Cause I've been spending all my time to give you a chance to change
You say you're in love but if this is love
What can I do to make it feel better?

And what about the feeling that there's someone on the side?
'Cause lately you've been acting like you got so much to hide
'Cause I know that lately you ain't been the same
And so I got to let you know that

Pretty brown eyes, you know I need you
I keep holding on, I can't let go
I hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
I keep holding on after all your rejection

'Cause I don't wanna let go
But you should know
I'll move on, I'll move on, I'll move on
Pretty brown eyes

Don't move on, don't move on
Don't move on, don't move on
Don't move on, move on from me, yeah
We belong together forever, ever, ever
Forever and ever and ever, yeah
