Yo La Tengo - Little Eyes lyrics

Took a walk alone last night
Slept inside your head
It was raining hard again
Crawled back into bed
Tried to catch up to you
But you moved too fast
Thought about a million things
Fell asleep at last

Got up again last night, tore all over town
Skidding tires
Screeching brakes barely make a sound
We were on a winding road going 65
Slid along an icy stretch, made it back alive

Little eyes are open
But they don't see very far
You can only hurt the ones you love
Not the ones you're thinking of
Little eyes are open
But they're sinking back again
Don't you know you're sleeping much too long?
Wake up, little eyes, little eyes

Moving, but not gaining any ground
Climbing up the escalator as
It takes you down

Last night
I heard this sound echoed everywhere
Like a buzzing amplifier burning
Through the air
It's still raining hard, you said
Have you any clue? Is it ever gonna stop? I
Guess that's up to you

Little eyes are open
But they don't see very far
You can only hurt the ones you love
Not the ones you're thinking of
Little eyes are open
But they're sinking back again
Don't you know you're sleeping much too long?
Wake up, little eyes, little eyes

Little eyes little eyes
Little eyes wake up, little eyes
