[Chorus]
Girl and I talkin' eye to eye
Watchin' breathlessly as life goes by

[Verse 1]
Pain again, it sees the wind and it cries
Lameness teaching the blind boy not to try
Empty pockets reach for Paradise
As dime store lackeys settle on the prize
Selling souls in the name of compromise
And empty hands reach out for the dice

[Chorus]
Girl and I talkin' eye to eye
Watchin' breathlessly as life goes by

[Verse 2]
Tender that thе words should go from your lips
Holy is your voice that from you sleeps
Into our sep'rate glass oncе more too deep
Not empty for the empty girl that trips
More laughter now, that laughter may not lose its grip

[Chorus]
Girl and I talkin' eye to eye
Watchin' breathlessly as life goes by
[Chorus]
Girl and I talkin' eye to eye
Watchin' breathlessly as life goes by

[Chorus]
Girl and I talkin' (Girl and I talkin') eye to eye (eye to eye)
Watchin' breathlessly (Watchin' breathlessly) as life goes by (as life goes by)

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Girl and I talkin' eye to eye
Watchin' breathlessly as life goes by
