For Other Eyes lyrics

Words: Mac Manus/Cassidy/M.P. Thomas
Music: Mac Manus (2:55)

I don`t know what I would do
If this letter should fall into
Other hands than it should pass through
For other eyes

He said, `It was nothing...it`s over and done`
But the rotten worm was burrowing still
Its spirit invades me bleeding me white
For other replies
I searched his pockets
I searched his eyes
I searched his wallet for clues and lies
And I found a number that I somehow dialled
A woman answered, a woman smiled
Then she hung up on the silence unperplexed
Innocently spun her rolodex
I dialled again I could not resist
Revealing just the dentist receptionist

One day we`ll laugh about it or maybe we`ll curse
But there is one thing that is making it worse
And it`s the lack of forgiveness that I can`t disguise
No matter how well he lies
Now we don`t know each other anymore
And when we touch our lips feel sore
I question the longing left in his sighs
For other eyes
