Naked To The Eye

Lyrics

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 hearts 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 it's 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
 Everythings there, naked to the eye
 Hey when you look at me baby
 I haven't got a prayer, naked to the eye
