Lyrics
[Verse 1]
And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time
[Verse 2]
And so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her sky
[Verse 3]
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes
[Verse 4]
And so it is
Just like you said it should be
We'll both forget the breeze
Most of the time
[Verse 5]
And so it is
The colder water
The blower's daughter
The pupil in denial
[Verse 6]
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes
[Verse 7]
Oh, did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to leave it all behind?
[Verse 8]
I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off of you
[Verse 9]
I can't take my mind
My mind
My mind
Till I find somebody new
