Song lyrics
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 of you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off of 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 of you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes...

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 of you
I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind...
My mind...my mind...
'Til I find somebody else

Such a painfull song... I feel my heart broken everytime I heard this song... these lyrics touch something inside me, and I feel that I need her again, even when she fucks my life... =(

Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to.... leave it all behind?...

Miss you Adts... =(

Beautiful song, my favorite song ever, bring so many memories back to me, and coincidence or not, the video has sea, wind, a woman and man, elements of my own private story.

I cry everytime I hear this song.
It's so achingly beautiful.
The way he sings it... it's SO sorrowful.

I love the lines..

"Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to leave it all behind?"

This song changed my life.

How true the song is though, that obsession, the feelings it evokes when you feel maybe they're pulling away from you, or the relationship is ended...

I like '' till I find somebody new'' beccause that's just how fickle we all can be....

This song makes me shiver every time I hear it.. So beautiful!
Has anyone part II? I found the lyric here but I never heard it & haven't been able to download it anywhere..
Is it as great as part 1?
