Lyrics

Never have I ever asked you what is missing from this picture that I painted for you yesterday
I say better late than never
You say nothing lasts forever
We say that it happens day to day

And it’s all in the way that you look at it, that makes you look this way
It’s all in the way you get used to it, that makes you go astay

But nothing can stop these eyes from wandering
Nothing can stop these eyes from wandering
Nothing can stop these, stop these wandering eyes

Once I had a superstition that I was on a secret mission to make everyone see things my way
And it’s all in the way that makes you look at it, that makes you look this way
All in the way you get used to it makes you go astay

But nothing can stop these eyes from wandering
Nothing can stop these eyes from wandering
Nothing can stop these, stop these wandering eyes
Notice that I forgot to mention now that I’ve got your attention
I did not want you to see me this way

But it’s all in the way that you look at it, that makes you look this way
It’s all in the way you get used to it, that makes you go astay

But nothing can stop these eyes from wandering
Nothing can stop these eyes from wandering
Nothing can stop these, stop these wandering eyes
Nothing can stop these eyes from wandering
Nothing can stop these, stop these wandering eyes
