There's a tear in your eye
Sure, I'm wondering why
For it never should be there at all
With such power in your smile
Sure a stone you'd beguile
And there's never a teardrop should fall
With the lilt in your laughter
Like some fairy song
Should your eyes twinkle bright as can be
You should laugh all the while
And all other time smile
So now smile a smile for me
When Irish eyes are smiling
Sure, it's like a morn in Spring
With a lilt of Irish laughter
You can hear the angels sing
When Irish hearts are happy
All the world seems bright and gay
And when Irish eyes are smiling
Sure they'd steal your heart away
When Irish eyes are smiling
Sure, it's like a morn in Spring
With a lilt of Irish laughter
You can hear the angels sing
When Irish hearts are happy
All the world seems bright and gay
And when Irish eyes are smiling
Sure they'd steal your heart away
