The Blower's Daughter

[the_number_23]

I sometimes feel like that girl walking through the crowd.
Where everyone seems to stop and turn their head,
their eyes catching,
for that one second.

But there's something in her eyes,
that just says,

You're not it.
You're not what I'm looking for.

You're not what I'm waiting for.

And so tosses her head back,
to let her hair blow in the wind.
As she keeps walking through that lonely crowd of people.

Damien Rice- The Blower's Daughter
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 skies

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

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...

Did I say that I loved 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...
