Across from me, on the bus this afternoon      
A girl of age ninety, eyes of blue                     
Peering out from a body changed too soon    
I saw the girl so charming in her youth           

Her hat reveals a woman of taste                                   
Now just to get off this bus is a torturous fate                
She'll slowly make the way back to her place               
An apartment where no one awaits                                 

Blue eyes unchanged                                                       
The body aged                                                                  
Blue eyes you are my last witnesses now                        
Blue eyes unchanged                                                       
The body aged                                                                 
Blue eyes tell me what you wanted to be                        
When you grew up                                                           

Blue eyes once reflected in her mother's gaze                
On those summers as a child by the lake                       
Blue eyes saw love's first embrace                                 
The boy down the road                                                   
I wonder if he's alive today                                             

Young girls go laughing past on the road                     
No one pays attention to the old                                   
But at least we know justice will be served                   
In the end everyone gets their turn                              

Blue eyes unchanged                     
The body aged 
Blue eyes you are my last witnesses now 
Blue eyes unchanged 
The body aged 
Blue eyes tell me what you wanted to be 
When you grew up
