El álbum Eyes That See In The Dark, de 1983, es la obra que marca la cima absoluta del éxito "crossover" de Kenny Rogers.

Es una obra sobresaliente del pop, con el inconfundible sello melódico y armónico de los hermanos Gibb.

Letra
Well, she walks like you In so many ways It's a different look Different time of day One look in her eyes How can I make you understand She's the one good thing That's happened in so many years There's been so many tears Since we lost the dream And the winter came And you said goodbye And I don't want another reason to cry You be all you wanna be You got the longest night Baby, you'd be alone I share my dream with someone else I don't wanna talk about her This woman She's tearing my world apart This woman Don't know what she's doing This woman Touches me and I lose control She's living inside my soul This woman I don't even know her name This woman Don't know what she's doing This woman Goes through me like a hurricane Falling in love again To make those long legs mine Is all I care about She's got so much to give Got to be the one Got to have someone to hold I got to make it with that woman When the nights get hot She goes walking by And the city light And the city lights They make you blind I go insane But am I crazy if she feels the same You believe what you believe You got the darkest night Baby, you'd be alone I take my love to someone else She was made to measure for me This woman She's tearing my world apart This woman Don't know what she's doing This woman Touches me and I lose control Falling in love again This woman She's tearing my world apart This woman Don't know what she's doing This woman Touches me and I lose control Living inside my soul This woman I don't even know her name This woman Don't know what she's doing This woman Goes through me like a hurricane Falling in love again - You And I4:34
Letra
All the man I am You are the reason for me, you help me understand I'll be your shelter from the rain that never ends Girl, you've always got a friend in me All the love we had I should've known our love was older than the past Throwing my life away on songs I never heard Just the speaking of a special word I made you die inside but you loved me And don't believe the world No, the world can't give us paradise When you make your love to me Til I just could not see the light As long as I got you As long as you got me As long as we got you and I I won't let you down No better love will be there when you turn around I'll be living for you till the ocean turns to sand There will never be any man Could love you just the way that I love you.... So don't believe the world No the world can't give us paradise In the eye within the storm When I just could not make it through the night As long as I got you As long as you got me As long as we got you and I So don't believe the world No the world can't give us paradise In the eye within the storm When I just could not make it through the night As long as I got you As long as you got me As long as we got you and I - Buried Treasure4:08

Letra
Baby, when I met you There was peace unknown I set out to get you With a fine tooth comb I was soft inside There was something going on You do something to me That I can't explain Hold me closer and I feel no pain Every beat of my heart We got something going on Tender love is blind It requires a dedication All this love we feel Needs no conversation We ride it together, ah-ha Making love with each other, ah-ha Islands in the stream That is what we are No one in between How can we be wrong Sail away with me To another world And we rely on each other, ah-ha From one lover to another, ah-ha I can't live without you If the love was gone Everything is nothing If you got no one And you just walk in the night Slowly losing sight of the real thing But that won't happen to us And we got no doubt Too deep in love and we got no way out And the message is clear This could be the year for the real thing No more will you cry Baby, I will hurt you never We start and end as one In love forever We can ride it together, ah-ha Making love with each other, ah-ha Islands in the stream That is what we are No one in between How can we be wrong Sail away with me To another world And we rely on each other, ah-ha From one lover to another, ah-ha Sail away [Instrumental Interlude] Ooooh, come sail away with me Islands in the stream That is what we are No one in between How can we be wrong Sail away with me To another world And we rely on each other, ah-ha From one lover to another, ah-ha Islands in the stream That is what we are No one in between How can we be wrong Sail away with me To another world And we rely on each other, ah-ha From one lover to another, ah-ha Islands in the stream That is what we are No one in between - Living With You3:09
Letra
You've been teaching me a lesson That I've never learned You never make it through a lifetime Without being burned Everything I ever thought you were You turned out to be Since you gave your love to me. When I met you on a Monday My life just stood still I belong in every moment That your love can fill Let me be the only heart you can mend Turn out the light and take it right to the end Living with you In the madness of my mind In a world I could not find But you knew what to do Living with you There's a full moon on the rise There's a fire in your eyes And I was born to be. Loving you under my skin You're everything to me I could not love you more And you know that you are mine And that's what I'm living for There will never be a question Of somebody new I could make it through a lifetime With someone like you Let me be the only heart … - Evening Star3:37
Letra
If you never rode West of the Arizona border You can turn the other way boy but you never get far You be living a lie if you wanna see the wonders of the age You must follow the evening star. Evening star Shine a little Heaven On a stranger with no dream Where you are. You can see the loneliness I mean and if I gotta fight I can never play somebody else's game I can follow the evening star Starlight, you never need somebody else's name If you follow the evening star. Have you ever known a sunset when the sky's on fire How you end another day boy you've been searching too far Like the desert I rode on any memory is lost in the restless wind I just lie beneath the evening star. Evening star Shine a little Heaven On a stranger with no dream Where you are. Have you ever held a woman in the California moonlight Put your money on a good night if you never been there It's a sight for sore eyes if you wanna see the wonders of the age Making love beneath the evening star. Evening star Shine a little Heaven on a stranger with no dream Where you are. You can see the loneliness I mean and if I gotta fight I will never play somebody else's game I can follow the evening star Starlight, you never need somebody else's name If you follow the evening star... - Hold Me4:11
Letra
If my heart's not too late For a piece of your heart There's been so many days Since your eyes looked at mine. In the dark of this room Where the burning has grown You believe in your love When you're lost and alone And life don't give no reasons When the love goes away No answers for someone like you. Hold me, hold me Seems like we never get together anymore Hold me, hold me Starry nights don't come enough That's what we come here for, hold me. I will lay by your side I can warm your cold nights You can play in my dreams Til I'm out of your sight In the morning my love Couldn't change where you go You were always my woman It's the one truth I know So hold out, when there's no chance For your love anyway No diamond could shine close to you Hold me, hold me Seems like we never get together anymore Hold me, hold me Starry nights don't come enough That's what we come here for, hold me. - Midsummer Night3:47
- I Will Always Love You4:20
Letra
I saw you tonight In the room where love had started once before And we open up the skies With your loving eyes You take me back where you belong in my heart (One love frozen in time Never be a bad love, yours and mine) But I still remain And I will never change I will always love you I will always take your part And all the years of losing you and then Being close to you again The very chance that I could take your heart Your hand in mine (You are inside of me) One more time (Don't you remember me?) And the days that lie ahead, they all go wrong But tonight my love There's no question in my mind where we should be And it's clear that you're alone and I'm alone And all the fools have gone You open up so tears can fall from your eyes (True love can never die We can make it one day if we try) Be there sunshine or rain And I will never change I will always love you I will always take your part And all the years of losing you and then Making love to you again The very chance that I could take your heart Your hand in mine (I got a memory) For all time (Don't you remember me?) Now my dream will come true if you love me I will always love you I will always take your part And all the years of losing you and then Making love to you again The very chance that I could take your heart Your hand in mine... - Eyes That See In The Dark4:05
Letra
You're not meant to be alone I'll share your dream I'll show you love you've never known Two flames together in the deep of the night I'm up in your love. Close by you when you call I'll take my stand One chance to make or lost it all This time my journey to wherever you are I sail on your river so far my love we'll never be found If you believe. We got eyes that see in the dark And the power of love lives for making you mine And in the light of close investigation Is it only my imagination I got you. Moonlight shining on your face My bridges burned With all my tears that you replaced Two hearts together is a beautiful sight I'll take you to heaven so far my love will follow you there If we believe. We got eyes that see in the dark And the power of love lives for making you mine Am I the light of someone you need more of Let me be that love you can be sure of Is it only my imagination I got you. Like the eagle that flies in the sun I'll be lost in your fire before we are done And the view from my window is brighter Born to be all you need. We got eyes that see in the dark And the power of love lives for making you mine Am I the light of someone you need more of Let me be that love you can be sure of Is it only my imagination I got you...
