You two were friends before we met It's not my place to say it And he seems like an honest guy But he looks at you with hungry eyes, all of the time The thought has never crossed your mind You feel more like a sister And he has lovers of his own But they're more like pretty alibis, and he cannot disguise The things I recognise in those eyes Oh, baby, you know what I'm saying You don't want it to be true But you can never know a brother's heart like I do 'cause I have been where he is now He's awful nice But he looks at you with hungry eyes Oh yes I wouldn't wish to make it worse by raising heck about it There is a quiet understanding that I simply beat him to the prize But if you must get wise, the answer ever lies in those eyes Those eyes It's that look in his eyes
