lyrics

Hiding notes in a secret place,
I know it's so,
Close my eyes and see aeroplanes,
And so it goes,
Crossing numbers and counting days,
For you to see,
Fingers move and anticipate,
I skip a beat.

Hand me your eyes. Oversized.
I can see through. My disguise.

I’m with you when I’m by myself,
At least I feel,
Like its true with a little help,
And you can tell,
My heart beats faster when you speak,
And do you know,
Heaven comes only for a week,
And then it goes.

Hand me your eyes. Oversized.
I can see through. My disguise.
Show me your mind. Hypnotise.
Cover your mood. Heavy lies.
