Got My Eyes On You (11/14/2009) © 2009 Don Rudnickas

1)
Friend Let me tell you something, I can’t think quite straight
I’ve got too much going on here, Too much on my plate
Candles burning at both ends, Can’t do that very long
I feel like I’m in a dream now, Jumping all around
Trying to run from danger, Both feet on the ground
But no matter how I try, keep standing in my place

That’s when I feel those eyes, Searching in the dark night
Looking for their easy prey
I hear the lonesome cries, It wakes me with a cold fright
But I’ve got my warning now, I’m ready for a fight

Chorus:
I’ve seen all your tricks before, I know just what to do
You’ll put your spell over me and I won’t have a clue
But I’m wary now cause…
I got my eyes on you…

2)
Some people disregard the signals gathered there
But I go by intuition, can feel it in the air
Something just feels out of place, Like a picture hanging wrong
The path seems a bit too easy, It gives me quite a scare
I find myself spinning round, I’ve wandered in your lair
All the instincts that I had, are tingling on my skin

That’s when I drop down low, and hit the ground for cover
Adjust my vision to the room
My panic starts to grow, Afraid that you’ll discover
Just what I’m feeling now, can’t keep it undercover

Instrumental

3)
Lessons learned that come too easy, I see them all the time
They take down the strongest souls, can catch them in their prime
No matter what you’ve gone and learned, doesn’t seem to help you now
I’ve got a good suspicion, the battle’s getting near
Can tell by the sound the wind is blowing in my ear
With every chorus that it sings, the meaning is more clear

That when I listen close, and try to hear the soft song
Heed the message that it brings
But as the volume grows, My senses are not as strong
I’m feeling weaker now, And I know what is wrong
