(chorus)
Behind these hazel eyes
Hides alot of pain
Alot of sorrow and heartbreak
They don't sparkle much
They aren't much to look into at times
But they tell a story
Of a girl hurt and rejected by many
By words that they said and never took back
Telling her she wasn't good enough
She wasn't desirable enough
Telling her she wasn't slim enough
She wasn't smart enough
Not thin enough
Not beautiful enough
So tears flow from them sometimes
Mainly of hurt and sadness
(chorus)
Behind these hazel eyes
Hides alot of pain
Alot of sorrow and heartbreak
They don't sparkle much
They aren't much to look into at times
But they tell a story
And of one man who swept her off her feet
With his blue eyes and charming words
Telling she was prettier than a movie star
That got to be in a music video too
But he broke her heart in the end
And left her heart shattered to a million pieces
And he made her feel so unlovable after that
(chorus)
Behind these hazel eyes
Hides alot of pain
Alot of sorrow and heartbreak
They don't sparkle much
They aren't much to look into at times
But they tell a story
Then the many men who came and went
The ones who only wanted someone to talk to
The ones who thought she would give them something she wouldnt give
The ones who never gave her a second glance
The ones who wouldn't ask her out and give a chance to her
The ones who made her feel like man's best friend - a loyal dog
The ones that wouldn't hold her and let her cry if she needed it
(chorus)
Behind these hazel eyes
Hides alot of pain
Alot of sorrow and heartbreak
They don't sparkle much
They aren't much to look into at times
But they tell a story... a story of an ordinary girl
