Evil Eye
Beady Eye Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Just let it go, just let it lie
Don't give me your reasons why
You had to go, you had to fly
Sometimes your head is gone
Been here for much too long
Sometimes the road is wrong
Don't give me your evil eye
You talk of love and how we're the same
Listen up as tears go by
I've no regrets, no one's to blame
Sometimes your head is gone
In my view, what's going on
Sometimes the road is wrong
Got to keep holding on
You can call on me
I gotta let you know love is all we need
You gotta let it show
Once you receive never let it go
You can call on me
I gotta let you know love is all we need
You gotta let it show
Once you receive never let it go
You can call on me
I gotta let you know I'm down on my knees
I'm singing you my soul
You're all I see in the afterglow

Can't believe this isn't on the standard version. One of the best.

Vinnie Bernard I agree. And yet they strung out Don't brother me to over 7 minutes!!! Bloody awful decision.

Couldn't agree more. Why is this not on it! Annoys me so much 😂
Lord Hafey
This, Back after the break, Off at the next exit, and World's not set in stone are all class tunes and should have been on the album! Some of the best stuff Beady Eye did!

"Evil Eye" should be a single. Such a great and melodic song.
Its definitely a crime its not on the srandard version of "BE".

this is better than ANYTHING Noel has done solo. Beady Eye were fantastic.......one of the most underrated bands ever.
Andrew Herrera
What about Liam? I say his newest album "why me why not" is stale and he will probably not make good songs ever again.

Noel's fart is better than everything Beady Eye has done.
Oasis without Noel is nothing. Their only decent song is The Roller, while the best Oasis songs were made with/by Noel
