Eye in the Sky

Sorry for another song post but I found these lyrics to be poignant.

Eye in the Sky
Written by Eric Woolfson and Alan Parsons

Don’t think sorry’s easily said
Don’t try turning tables instead
You’ve taken lots of chances before
But I’m not gonna give anymore
Don’t ask me
That’s how it goes
Cause part of me knows what you’re thinkin’

Don’t say words you’re gonna regret
Don’t let the fire rush to your head
I’ve heard the accusation before
And I ain’t gonna take any more
Believe me
The sun in your eyes
Made some of the lies worth believing

Chorus:
I am the eye in the sky
Looking at you
I can read your mind
I am the maker of rules
Dealing with fools
I can cheat you blind
And I don’t need to see any more
To know that
I can read your mind, I can read your mind

Don’t leave false illusions behind
Don’t cry cause I ain’t chnaging my mind
So find another fool like before
Cause I ain’t gonna live anymore believing
Some of the lies while all of the signs are deceiving

(chorus)

1. Oddly enough

that was the very first karaoke song I ever sang, oh so many years ago. Quite the choice, eh? Never again......

2. I never liked the song

until I heard the way Jonatha Brooke sings it. Very moving. Here, it's the last song on the disc. You can hear a sample of it:
