Your eyes were wandering
Turned mine from blue to green
But I know what you wanted to see
Weaved in the seems

(Each day) you grow a little more sour
(She was) never meant to be
Closer than most to me for so long

Your eyes are wandering
Turn mine from blue to green
Your eyes were wandering
But my eyes are opening

No sign of interest
She's yawning at all my attempts to impress
She said it feels like
Being asleep at the-
