Sure as you walk I'll be waiting patiently In the window above the street Clear to the park Where you circle as routine Every afternoon I know just where you'll be Year after year As the vines grow ever north No suspicion at all That you're mine to see with
Eyes that hold you up on solid ground Eyes that know you better than you know yourself But I'm not ready yet I can't tell you yet
And when the rain Washes over this city All the sidewalks are calm but for your feet Folds in the sheets Like a secret we both keep All the coldness of your air blows in to me Shame upon shame Every night ends the same No suspicion at all That you're mine to keep with
Eyes that hold you up on solid ground Eyes that know you better than you know yourself Eyes that understand the hope you need Eyes that long to view you constantly But I'm not ready yet I'm not ready yet
Eyes that lift you up above the ground Eyes that never know when to look down Eyes that see the best of the world passing by
