Wild Eyes 03:25
She don’t say much, cause there’s not too much to say I never call her but I just can’t stay away She has a reach that grabs you, so very weird to say Through endless hours forever ever day Her mind is a maze, her thoughts are amazing She has wild, wild, wild, wild eyes Well, she moves strangely lazy, unsure, kinda, maybe? She has wild, wild, wild, wild eyes I read through her pages, different streets as I drive by She don’t watch much TV cause it only makes her cry If I had a magic ring I would give it to her gladly Even if she laughed and smiled madly Her mind is a maze, her thoughts are amazing She has wild, wild, wild, wild eyes And she moves strangely lazy, unsure, kinda, maybe? She has wild, wild, wild, wild eyes Take a closer look you don’t need no crystal ball Ain’t no bed of roses, no net to break your fall Like a scene from a Hollywood movie, you already know the words No surprise, just those wild, wild eyes No surprise, just those wild, crazy eyes, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah She’s got those wild, wild, wild eyes She’s got those wild, wild, wild eyes No surprise, wild, crazy eyes, yeah, yeah, yeah She’s got those wild, wild, wild eyes

You feel that I’m a tad unusual Your Mama thinks that I’m a bit delusional I just want to be, an ordinary tree, with Superman’s hands Flying through space is unforgettable Don’t be afraid of what’s conceivable If you, could only see, past my invisibilities The one and only man, with Superman’s hands I don’t need a cape to fly Or shooting lasers from my eyes The strength of ten kryptonic men You’re falling under my super spell Far beyond the Northern Lights We’ll build a crystal home that shines so bright You ask me are my dreams illusional Clearly our love is way too confusional Don’t you fear the darkest villains They keep me sharp they keep me willing I will always be, the man with Superman’s hands, Superman’s hands The man with Superman’s hand, Superman’s hands The man with Superman’s hand, Superman’s hands The man with Superman’s hand, Superman’s hands
