(Verse 1) Red dirt caked up on my boots, sunburn on my neck My back is screaming at me, paycheck ain't here yet Another long day done, another dollar earned and spent I’m running on fumes and coffee, my soul is tapped and bent I pull into the drive, cut the engine and the sigh There’s a light on in the window, and I’m reaching for the door (Chorus) ‘Cause she’s a sight for these sore eyes Like the Grand Canyon at sunrise Like the Mona Lisa’s smile, a masterpiece I can’t describe I’ve seen the wonders of the world, from mountains to the sea But nothing in this whole wide world is a better sight to see Than her standing in the kitchen light, a sight for these sore, sore eyes (Verse 2) She don’t need to say a word, just leans against the frame The way she looks at me, it puts the fire back in the flame All the diesel smoke and gravel roads just fade away and die The moment that she meets my gaze, I swear I see the sky I’ve traveled far and wide, seen things I can’t explain But the way she looks back at me, it puts ’em all to shame (Chorus) ‘Cause she’s a sight for these sore eyes Like the Grand Canyon at sunrise Like the Mona Lisa’s smile, a masterpiece I can’t describe I’ve seen the wonders of the world, from mountains to the sea But nothing in this whole wide world is a better sight to see Than her standing in the kitchen light, a sight for these sore, sore eyes (Bridge) They say the Northern Lights will leave you breathless and in awe And I’ll admit, I’ve seen ’em, and I’ve never felt so small But that first look at her face after a long, hard week of rain Is the only kind of beautiful that puts me back together again She’s a sight for these sore eyes (Give me that healing now) Like the Grand Canyon at sunrise (Yeah, the light is coming through) Like the Mona Lisa’s smile, a masterpiece I can’t describe I’ve seen the wonders of the world, from mountains to the sea But nothing in this whole wide world is a better sight to see Than her standing in the kitchen light Yeah, just a little bit of kitchen light She’s a sight for these sore, sore eyes (Outro) (Sore, sore eyes) Yeah, my tired, worn-out, red-rimmed, sore eyes (Sight for sore eyes) Just a little bit of heaven (Sight for sore eyes) Yeah, she’s the only healing I need (Sight for...)
