Thereâs a blue eye watchinâ you
And it sees what you do and what you say you do
And thereâs a red eye gonna carry you away
Will you come flying back someday
But the phone donât ring
And the birds donât sing
And the rain keeps falling all over everything
I thought I paid my dues to the cracks in the wall
But what I knew is nothinâ at all
Red Eye
I tell you goodbye
You call me up one day and say itâs over
Get out the house, Iâm cominâ home
I can hardly stand to be without you
but I gotta be alone
Red Eye
Iâm hearinâ goodbye
I tried to love you faithfully
But I never could hold you close enough to me
I could feel our longing opening away
from each other while in love and in one anotherâs arms we lay
Cuz thereâs a blue eye watchinâ you
And it sees what you do and what you say you do
And thereâs a red eye gonna carry you away
Will you come flying back someday
Red Eye
Weâre sayinâ goodbye
Red Eye
