Eye In The Sky
Massimo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It doesn't need to mean a thing, nothing at all, unsure of what to believe
Under control I keep telling myself
Wish you could take desire from me

Gonna have to put this aside, we'll be fine
In reality there's something we don't recognize
That's why nothing could ever suffice
But the fire in your eyes, I want to
See the fire in your eyes, I got you
Making moves like we don't try, my heart aches
For the fire in your eyes

Anyway, do you know what I mean to say
Plays out like a memory, what could be ahead of me

Really we're gonna have to put this aside, for tonight
Now I've got another reason why I'm still to decide
We tried, there's nothing else quite like

The fire in your eyes, I want to
See the fire in your eyes, I got you




Making moves like we don't try, my heart aches
For the fire in my eyes

Under control I keep telling myself
Trying to convince myself that I have it all together

I wish I could rid myself of this longing

I have a new justification for my indecision


We tried, there's nothing else quite like
We gave it a shot, but there's nothing comparable


For the fire in your eyes
For the passion and intensity in your gaze
