Song Meaning
Ben Fuller's 'I Only Have Eyes for You' is a love song that expresses total devotion and focus on a beloved person. The lyrics describe a kind of 'blind love' where the singer cannot see anyone else, and even the stars, moon, or crowds fade from view because the beloved is all that matters. While the song is romantic and not explicitly Christian, it can be interpreted as a metaphor for wholehearted devotion to God, though the original context is secular. The song's message of singular focus and love may resonate with themes of faith and surrender, but it does not directly reference Christian doctrine or scripture.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
My love must be a kind of blind love
I can't see anyone but you
And dear, I wonder if you find love
An optical illusion, too?
Are the stars out tonight?
I don't know if it's cloudy or bright
Cause I only have eyes for you, dear
The moon may be high
But I can't see a thing in the sky
Cause I only have eyes for you
I don't know if we're in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue
You are here, so am I
Maybe millions of people go by
But they all disappear from view
And I only have eyes
I only have eyes
I only have eyes for you
