Eyes That Say “I Love You”

When the night has gone cold

And you're standing so alone

On the threshold of

The rest of what you know

When the fever has died out

Turned a flood to a drought

Left a chill inside

That's growing like a ghost

You'll come running with eyes that say 'I love you'

You'll come running with eyes that say 'I love you'

You'll be blind, you'll be blind

And I won't know you, won't see you

Won't need you, won't love you anymore

When the poison from the wound

Slowly takes hold of you

And the only way not to drown

Is not to fight it

When you're falling down the stairs

With your superstitions and grey hairs

On a helter skelter fall

To your demise

You'll come running with eyes that say 'I love you', yeah

You'll come running with eyes that say 'I love you'

Yeah, you'll be blind, you'll be blind

And I won't know you, I won't see you

I won't need you, I won't love you anymore

Oh you thought that you would never need

What I could have given

If you'd given half a chance

Start again from the end

From beyond where you've been

You can't wash away your sins

In shallow water

Cast a stone into the grave

Of the plans that you made

They can only go as far

As you can throw them

And then you'll come running with eyes that say 'I love you', yeah

You'll come running with eyes that say 'I love you', yeah

You'll be blind, you'll be blind

And I won't know you, I won't see you

I won't need you, I won't love you anymore
