The Shelter of Your Eyes - Don Williams - MP3 instrumental karaoke

The easy-going country tread of tracks like "The Shelter of Your Eyes" are a testament to Don Williams's "Gentle Giant" persona. He was only two years into his solo career when he released this 1972 effort, which carries a laid-back countrypolitan quality that set the tone for his future chart-topping hits – all 17 of them. On "The Shelter of Your Eyes" his voice glides through a subdued patter of strings as he delivers tender-hearted declarations. "And I'm, gonna stay / Right here 'cause I'm / In rhythm with your mind / Tune out the world / And rest my head / 'Neath the shelter of your eyes", he croons in the chorus. "The Shelter of Your Eyes” was the first single to be released from his debut LP Don Williams Volume One, which was issued in 1973 and peaked at number five on the US Country Albums Chart. The track went to number 14 on the Billboard chart and number 11 on Cashbox.
