I Only Have Eyes for You
Captivated by Love: I Only Have Eyes for You
Lyrics
Are the stars out tonight?
Expressing a query about the presence of stars in the night sky.
I don't know if it's cloudy or bright
Uncertainty about the weather conditions, whether it's cloudy or clear.
'Cause I only have eyes for you, dear
Declaring exclusive focus and attention on a significant other.
My love must be some kind of blind love
Suggesting that the speaker's love is so intense that it blinds them to other attractions.
I don't see anybody but you
Affirming that the speaker sees only the person they love and no one else.
The moon may be high
Acknowledging the presence of the moon, possibly emphasizing the romantic setting.
But I can't see a thing in the sky
Expressing inability to see anything else in the sky despite the moon's brightness.
'Cause I only have eyes for you.
Reiterating the exclusive focus on the beloved, emphasizing the intensity of affection.
And dear, I wonder if you find love
Pondering if the beloved also experiences a similar intense and exclusive love.
An optical illusion, too?
Questioning if the intense focus on the beloved is an illusion or a genuine emotion.
I don't know if we're in a garden
Expressing uncertainty about the surroundings, whether they are in a garden or a busy street.
Or on a crowded avenue
Highlighting the ambiguity of the environment, reinforcing the exclusive focus on the beloved.
You are here, so am I
Acknowledging the presence of the beloved, confirming a shared experience.
Maybe millions of people go by
Noting the multitude of people passing by without affecting the exclusive focus on the beloved.
But they all disappear from view
Emphasizing the disappearance of others from the speaker's attention.
I only have eyes for you
Reiterating the exclusive focus on the beloved despite external distractions.
My love must be some kind of blind love
Echoing the earlier sentiment that the intensity of love seems to blind the speaker to others.
I don't see anybody but you
Affirming that the speaker only sees the beloved and no one else.
