[Verse 1]
I'm in the mood to end these empty days
Every night, you stare down romancing
Every time I see your face
Hopeless, colder than ice, with no more flame
I think our love has reached the part of no return
It's so sad when lovers don't see

[Chorus]
Eye to eye, a look says everything
Eye to eye, so close, so far away

[Verse 2]
That distant look is all you've got to say
Every time I try to talk to you
Every word is lost in space
Drifting further apart in every way
We've come to be the ones whose love is out of sight
It's so clear that we just don't see

[Chorus]
Eye to eye, a look says everything
Eye to eye, so close, so far away

[Bridge]
There's no reason for this heartache
To go on and on, when the feeling's gone
I can see now that it's too late
To try and change your mind
No more tears, falling
A look says everything, yeah
Eye to eye
Eye to eye, I see, yeah
Eye to eye to eye, yeah

[Chorus]
Eye to eye, a look says everything
Eye to eye, so close, so far away (Far away, yeah, yeah)
Eye to eye, a look says everything (One good look says everything)
Eye to eye, a look says everything (You're getting farther away, yeah)
Eye to eye, so close, so far away (Yeah)
Eye to eye
