Mary Chapin Carpenter - ***** To The Eye Lyrics
(mary chapin carpenter)Been walking these streets, been deciding whats trueBeen hands in my pockets, coat collar up, thinking `bout youIve been talking to myself, giving fate the third degreeIve been eyes on the pavement admitting my part to strangers passing meAnd I know it isnt fair, but nothings ever beenHey when you look at me baby, my God how I feel so good againI dont know where I went wrong, but it isnt right to lieHey when you look at me baby, my hearts wide open, ***** to the eyeNow some lovers are apart, but theyre never far awayI can see her in your eyes, hear her in your voice and I have to turn awayOh what covet is to ache, is what aching is to meFor the arms of a man who knows who I am and where I need to beAnd if I know what I know, then the lonely cant pretendWhen you look at me baby, my God how I feel so whole againIs there heaven after all, or just this empty spaceThat no amount of time, nor comfort in its hands can ever help me faceWhich is worse is yet to come, your rebuff or my resignHey when you look at me baby, Im helpless as a child, ***** to the eyeIts like a fever and a spell, unbroken by a sighOh when you look at me baby Im going nowhere, just ***** to the eyeYeah when you look at me baby, everythings there, ***** to the eyeHey when you look at me baby, I havent got a prayer, ***** to the eye
