Laid Eyes On You

Words & Music: Allan Thomas

SWEAR I WAS JUST FINE
RIDIN’ SINGLE-TRACK FOR SOME TIME
A DETECTIVE WITHOUT A CLUE
A FIGHTER WHO DOESN’T KNOW HE’S THROUGH
TILL I LAID EYES ON YOU
LAID EYES ON YOU

WELL I TRIED RUNNING THE OTHER WAY
FOLDED WHEN MY LEGS TURNED TO CLAY
HIT THE ROPES NEXT THING I KNEW
I WAS DOWN FOR THE COUNT ON TWO
IT WAS OVER BEFORE I COULD SAY BOO
ONCE I LAID EYES ON YOU

BATTEN DOWN THE HATCHES
BIG SQUALL BEARING DOWN
GONNA GET TOPSY-TURVY
FOR A LITTLE WHILE

NOTHING VENTURED NOTHING GAINED
MY WORLDS UNRAVELING AND IT’S A GOOD THING
I NO LONGER CAN RESIST
NEVER KNOWN A LOVE LIKE THIS
AND IT HAPPENED RIGHT ON QUE
ONCE I LAID EYES ON YOU
LAID EYES ON YOU
