your eyes

 

you asked me why -- i'll tell you, then
two worlds collide -- we bury them
we're far too drunk to see these things as they are
you painted me & i sat quite still
a tiny room in notting hill
it was far too dark to look at things as they are

but i've seen the light vanish out of your eyes
oh no -- from your eyes
oh -- so goodbye

you tell me now i'm young & wild
you spare the rod, & you'll spoil the child
i'd love to stay but i think i'm off to japan
anyway

i've seen the light vanish out of your eyes
oh no --from your eyes
oh -- so goodbye

from your eyes, oh no
where has it gone?
your eyes have lost their shine
