"Eyes On You" lyrics

"Eyes On You"

Tendi with the good hands stutters when she's speaking
Johnny drives a big rig, Johnny's not sleeping
Sweet Geraldine turned 80 in the spring
But her nerves won't quit she worries about everything

Sarah's on a work trip crying at her hotel
Jessie's doing back flips, Molly's doing so well
Joey's got a new girl, Emily moved away
And the world's on fire the whole time we're trying to put out the flame

Life it gets louder now
Can't stop it
Won't slow down
Lost in this
All I can do
Is keep my eyes on you

I know the world turns around
I know the lights are gonna go out
But until they do I've got nothing to lose
I keep my eyes on you
I keep my eyes on you

Tommy took a free fall, didn't pull the rip-chord
Gathered at the funeral, everybody looked bored
Amanda had a baby, Katie she lost a few
And when the smoke gets thick I can't help it
I hear tick-tick boom

Life it gets louder now
Can't stop it
Won't slow down
Lost in this
All I can do
Is keep my eyes on you

I know the world turns around
I know the lights are gonna go out
But until they do I've got nothing to lose
I keep my eyes on you

I keep my eyes on the horizon...

I know the world turns around
I know the lights are gonna go out
But until they do I've got nothing to lose
I've got nothing to lose
I keep my eyes on you
I keep my eyes on you
I keep my eyes on you
I keep my eyes on you
