Grew up together in the neighbourhood
She never noticed that he looked so good
He told her "All I do is dream of you", oh yeah
No she had never seen in her wildest dreams
Blue eyes that Gleam - Just like James Dean

Big plans they made in a small hometown
No chance to leave would really bring him down
A crazy rebel with a cause - He was for sure, oh yeah
Oh she had never seen in her wildest dreams
Blue eyes that Gleam - Just like James Dean

He writes her letters from a round the world
Says he loves her and she's still his girl
Maybe he'll come back, don't know when
Oh she'll never see her baby again

He's got the whole world in his hands
And she was Alice in his wonderland
Oh they had dreams, but now he has it all, yeah
No she had never seen in her wildest dreams
Blue eyes that Gleam - Just like James Dean

She was the diamond of his eyes
And she would always be right by his side
But good guys only win in the movies, yeah
Oh she had never seen in her wildest dreams
Blue eyes that Gleam - Just like James Dean

He writes her letters from around the world
Says he loves her and she's still his girl
Maybe he'll come hack, don't know when
Oh she'll never see her baby again
