Naked To The Eye

LETRA

Naked To The Eye

Been walking these streets, been deciding what's true
Been hands in my pockets, coat collar up, thinking 'bout you
I've been talking to myself, giving fate the third degree
I've been eyes on the pavement, admitting my part to strangers passing me

And I know it isn't fair, but nothing's ever been
Hey, when you look at me, baby, my god, how I feel so good again
I don't know where I went wrong, but it isn't right to lie
Hey, when you look at me, baby, my heart's wide open, naked to the eye

Now some lovers are apart, but they're never far away
I can see her in your eyes, hear her in your voice, and I have to turn away
Oh, what covet is to ache, is what aching is to me
For the arms of a man who knows who I am and where I need to be

And if I know what I know, then the lonely can't pretend
When you look at me, baby, my god, how I feel so whole again
Is there heaven after all, or just this empty space
That no amount of time, nor comfort in its hands can ever help me face?
Which is worse is yet to come, your rebuff or my resign
Hey, when you look at me, baby, I'm helpless as a child, naked to the eye

It's like a fever and a spell, unbroken by a sigh
Oh, when you look at me, baby, I'm going nowhere, just naked to the eye
Yeah, when you look at me, baby, everything's there, naked to the eye
Hey, when you look at me, baby, I haven't got a prayer, naked to the eye
