Eye In The Sky Lyrics

Don't think sorry's easily said
Don't try turnin' tables instead
You've taken lots of chances before
But I ain't 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...

    This is obviously about a romantic relationship and how the woman cheated and/or lied and convinced the man that her lies were true. He fell for the lies for so long, but found out she was being false later on and gave her another chance, but she only lied again. It's obvious how much the man loved the woman, which is why he became so gullible. this is a very deep and powerful song that expresses the emotions attached to being lied to in a relationship beautifully.

    Can't on quick search find this but must be out there. They've read the 1957 science fiction novel by Philip K. Dick, "I am the eye in the sky, looking at you, I can read your mind." Read the novel, and it will all make sense.
