FOR YOUR EYES ONLY
Don't look over my shoulder I'm trying to read remember these intimate moments don't forget my privacy we both have our orders and a trick up the sleeve there's no use pretending you're asleep the subject was roses quine geology deliberate notice you're taking of me caution and danger are not family don't try turning the tables on me
Too long and too lonely for your eyes only secretly enjoy the paradox you thinking I'm the fox can't ya see you personally
So many people know who you are and they know you've been looking for your counterpart we're chasing an echo in sonic 3-D if I laugh without joking make believe
Too long and too lonely for your eyes only totally you personally I like what you're showing for your eyes only secretly for your eyes only |
COMMENTS
quoted from the book 'Deborah Harry: Platinum Blonde - A Portrait By Cathay Che' - 1999
question: "For Your Eyes Only?"
answer: That was the James Bond thing. We were supposed to do a song for the James Bond movie 'For Your Eyes Only', but we didn't like their song, so we did our own song and they didn't want it. But that's okay, the Sheena Easton song was fine.
