Electric Six – Eye Contact lyrics

Call me a lover or call me a lion
Call me the minstrel of sighin'
With God as my witness I try to go with this
But I just can't stand by your lyin'

You say you wouldn't dare as far as you're aware
What is fair, is fair let's not go there
We made eye contact take it all back
We arrived here alone and we left here together

Like birds of a cardinal feather
Drinks came and drinks went, but drugs were forever
This contract was doomed to be severed
You said, "All was war in love and fair"

And it was more than I could bear
Don't make me go back there
But before there was all that we made eye contact
Trying to slips back and then we bridge the contract

We made contact with a higher power
Love growing stronger hour by hour
There was no room for compromise
When you made me stare directly in your eyes

How do I get through this nightmare?
I don't know, don't make me go back there
'Cause I won't go, I should have stayed in Ohio
And now they played the last game show

Without eye contact (The more you feel, the less you know)
Take it all back (I'm only here to fly)
We made eye contact (She looked directly in your eye)
Trying to slips back and then we bridge the contract
Eye contact trying to slip back and we'll take our own back

We made eye contact
