This Eye - Edie Brickell & New Bohemians

One day you just get tired of crying

Runnin' can’t escape the beating heart

One day you just get tired of dying

Living can’t escape the beating march

But a higher bloom unveils

In a low down dirty day

And all that dreams entail

Come and take your suffering away

This eye looks with love

This eye looks with judgment

Free me take the sight out of this eye

One night the howlin' dog sings a lullaby

Drift you onto peaceful memories

One night the howlin' dog cries out lonely life

Break you like the light between the trees

And they say sacrifice

Is letting sweet love go Never build a dam (n)

Wall to stop the flow

This eye looks with love

This eye looks with judgment

Free me take the sight out of this eye

All I can hope for is a light to see

When I search in the dark for my soul

And when my soul comes to rescue me I rest my resistance fall piece by piece into peace

And slip like the water back into the sea

This eye looks with love

This eye looks with judgment

Free me take the sight out of this eye

Free me take the sight out of this eye
