Lyrics:
Am
Well I realize I've been hypnotized
I love you Gypsy Eyes
I love you Gypsy Eyes
All right
Gypsy
Way up in my tree I'm sitting by my fire
wondering where in the world you may be
and knowin all the time
you're still rollin along in the country side
Oh my
Gypsy
Well I walked right on up to your revel roadside
the one that rambles on for a million miles
yes I walked down this road searching for your love
and I found some too
but I found her I ain't gonna let her go
I remember the first tiem I saw you
the tears in your eyes oh that girl's tryin' to say
oh little girl you know I could love you
but first I must make my getaway
two strange men fightin to the death over me today
I'll try and meet you by the old highway
Hey!
Well I realize I've been hypnotized
I love you Gypsy Eyes
I love you Gypsy Eyes
I love you Gypsy Eyes
I love you Gypsy Eyes
I've been searching so long
I think they made me lose the balle
down against the road my worry knees
off to the side I fall but I hear her sweet call
my gypsy eyes fine and I've been saved
Oh I've been saved
that's why I love you
I said I love you
Lord I love you
