Song lyrics to The Boy With the Wistful Eyes (1941) Lyrics by Don Raye, Music by Gene de Paul, Sung by Martha Raye, Carol Bruce and The Six Hits, in the tunnel of love in Keep ‘Em Flying

Carol Bruce

I’m looking for the boy with he wistful eyes
Oh I adore the boy with the wistful eyes
We met, and for a second
His lonely eyes beckoned.

Then the chance was missed
I passed the ball
I should have kissed, though I don’t know
What color his eyes may be
I can’t forget the way that they looked at me.

And now, all alone
Through two wistful eyes of my own,
I’m looking for, I realized is the boy with the wistful eyes.

Martha Raye

I’m looking for the boy with the wistful eyes
I adore the boy with the big sharp eye
We met, and for a second,
His lonely eyes beckoned.

Then the chance was missed
I passed up what I should have kissed
Though I don’t know what color his eyes may be …
I can’t forget the way that they looked at me.

And now, all alone, through two wistful eyes of my own
All I’m looking for, I realize,
Is the boy with the wistful eyes.

The Six Hits

We’re looking for the girl with the wistful eyes
Do do do loo doo doo
Oh, we adore the girl with the wistful eyes
Da da la da da dot da da …

[together]
Remember for a second
His lonely eyes beckoned

Then the chance was missed
I passed up what I should have kissed
I don’t know what color his eyes may be …
I can’t forget the way that they looked at me.

And now, all alone, through two wistful eyes of my own
All I’m looking for, I realize,
Is the boy with the wistful eyes.
