The Blower's Daughter

by: Megan Hilty

And so it is, just like you said it, uh baby
Life goes easy on me
Most, of the time
And so it is, the shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her sight
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
Will both forget the dreams
Most, of the time
And so it is, the colder water
The blower's daughter
The pupil in deny
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 love you?
Did I say that I want to
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
