"Wandering Eyes" lyrics
"Wandering Eyes"
Would you care not standing so close
I've got a promise that I gotta keep and I can't host
The idea of you and me engaged in a kiss
It's too dangerous and would be a mess
Cause I can't, you see
Someone's in love with me
And I with he
So very deeply
But when things get so goddamn deep
One has the tendency to feel somewhat weak
And grasp for air and want to be free
Of the clenches of love which have a taste that is bittersweet
Cause I can't, you see
Someone's in love with me
And I with he
So very deeply
Wandering eyes can bring so much fault
Especially when they wander too far from their home
And meeting other wandering eyes
When all those are only just a fight
So would you care standing away from me
I don't want to be set free
I have realized now that everything is a compromise
And the grass is no greener on the other side
Cause I can't, you see
Someone's in love with me
And I with he
So very deeply
If there were an elixir
I'd find the mixture
And I'd make myself a pitcher
And I with he
So very deeply

Oh, I guess that have to be alright by me
