the blower's daughter
damien rice

and so it is just like you said it would be
life goes easy on me
most of the time
and so it is the shorter story
no love, no glory
no hero in her sky


i can't take my eyes off you
i can't take my eyes off you
i can't take my eyes off you
i can't take my eyes off you
i can't take my eyes off you
i can't take my eyes...


and so it is just like you said it should be
we'll both forget the breeze
most of the time
and so it is the colder water
the blower's daughter
the pupil in denial

did i say that i loathe you?
did i say that i want to
leave it all behind?

i can't take my mind off you
i can't take my mind off you
i can't take my mind off you
i can't take my mind off you
i can't take my mind off you
i can't take my mind...
my mind...my mind...
'til i find somebody new
