Jarvis Cocker - Eyes That Say I Love You" lyrics
[Jarvis Cocker - Eyes That Say I Love You" lyrics]
When the night has gone cold
And you're standing so alone
On your 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'
And 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
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'
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 a grave of
The plans that you made
They can only go as far as you can throw them
You'll come running with eyes that
Say 'I love you'
You'll come running with eyes that
Say 'I love you'
And 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
And you're standing so alone
On your 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'
And 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
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'
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 a grave of
The plans that you made
They can only go as far as you can throw them
You'll come running with eyes that
Say 'I love you'
You'll come running with eyes that
Say 'I love you'
And 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
