You didn’t catch my eye
when I threw it to you
Flirtatious pie
You must have been looking at another guy
but I was looking at you

And I noticed things
like your swinging hips
that are hellish thin
You got me reaching for the gin
and tonic just to calm me down

So the simple thing
that makes my heart leap up and sing
Ain’t no metaphysical thing
It’s down here on earth.

But it’s not your size,
not the thunder of your thighs
It’s just something in your eyes
that knocks me to the ground

Inside your eyes is a surprise
A window view inside of you

But you paid me back
despite the odds against me stacked
I saw the white around the black
And I was locked with you

You gave back my stare
You saw my soul, as I’m aware
Must have been something funny in there
cos you just laughed out loud

Inside your eyes is a surprise
A window view inside of you
