​of Montreal - I Was Watching Your Eyes lyrics

I want to write something beautiful
Something so beautiful that I
Just can't sing it
Without getting that incredible feeling
The one that just overwhelms my senses
Because it's the only thing I have
It's the only thing that
Makes my life worthwhile

I know there aren't too many people
Who allow themselves to say what they feel
So I was watching your eyes
In case they just might say something
I want to think someone's beautiful
That they're so beautiful
It's a thrill to be near them
Fill my stomach with butterflies
Have me floating on air
Bring something out of me I
Didn't know was there
But, it's such a torturous thing
That I am not excited by anyone

I know there aren't too many people
Who allow themselves to say what they feel
So I was watching your eyes
In case they just might say something
